Now back to the topic:

The Sydney Mardi Gras this year was a huge success.
It has become a major tourist attraction for Sydney.
But it's more than just that. As we can see from
this discussion, it continues to bring up issues
that are important for us to debate.

May this continue, and may it result in better
understanding.

Stuart Rintoul is an extreme Leftist of the kind Foxy gets all her propaganda from.

"A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or group of people when he or she does not benefit and may even suffer losses." Third Basic Law of Human Stupidity.

" the Aboriginal Protection
Board (formed in 1940) took on the legal guardianship of
all Aboriginal children."

Well at least those given up to their care by their parents. Earlier in her life, before it became unfashionable to say such things, Lois admitted that being given to the mission was the best thing that could have happened to her.

But Lois was probably lying about that, eh Foxy?

Dr Lowitja O'Donoghue said:

I I was For much of my childhood
I was deeply unhappy. I feel
I had been deprived of love and the ability to love.. Like
my mother Lily I felt totally powerless..."

She was told she would never amount to anything. She was not
allowed to speak her language. That her culture was the devl.
(Evil), and worse. Before making comments people should
really do their research on topics.

"According to O'Donoghue, she was very happy living at Colebrook and said she received a sound education both there and at the Quorn Primary School. The Quorn community at large actively encouraged children from the home to participate in local events, and assisted in the maintenance of the home. Only a few people objected to the integration. In 1944 Colebrook Home moved to Eden Hills, South Australia, due to chronic water shortages, enabling her to attend Unley High School, a local public school, and obtain her Intermediate Certificate. She was taught up until the Leaving Certificate standard but did not sit for the examination."

Lois also acknowledged that everything she achieved in life was due to the education she received at Colebrook, and Unley High School and that those opportunities would never have been available had her father not given her to the mission.

But she was probably lying about that!
