Perhaps 'Has been' and 'ttbns' may care to access a Website that I have initiated along with my colleague, noted Wiradjuri artist Glenn Loughrey. That has occupied my time over the last few years. The Website, entitled "So That We Remember" can be accessed at sothatweremember.com.au. Over a course of 365 days, it provides excerpts from primary sources, and the writings of contemporary Australian historians, on the violent dispossession experienced by Australia's Indigenous people entailed in the imperial acquisition of their land. A number of entries refer to the religious justifications given for that dispossession. Dr Ray Barraclough

A defaulting debt slave.

Australians are enslaved by debt on a massive scale. That’ll do me for “ slave”.

Hi Sells
Maybe your next article?
I suspect your take on that question may be a bit different to Dr Barraclough's
