You truly have nailed it examinator, its that self image we must rebuild first.
Those who fail to understand we must not let ourselves fail again have my sympathy. What ever it takes I hope Rudd has a plan,please have one Kevin. Posted by Belly, Saturday, 14 February 2009 5:43:59 PM

http://www.nit.com.au/news/story.aspx?id=17078 Foxy You will find the Newspaper very interesting Graham Dillion btw is one of the people we have worked with for many years and family friend. Just a few people behind this project. Bradley Saunders A/Assistant Director Partnerships and Innovation Strategic Partnerships Office Department of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Policy "And May I say what an Amazing man." Mr Mark Townend CEO RSPCA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) Asmadi Bin Md. Rahani Operation Manager, ICMC Healthcare Sdn. Bhd. Humane Society International Who said the following for our web page- Humane Society International is in full support of the HKM, PALE, AFIC initiative to create a more humane life for farm animals and to improve slaughter techniques. The establishment of Humane Halal abattoirs is a giant step in the right direction. We look forward to an opportunity to work with them in the future to achieve these goals.” Only by working together with people and animals especially in regional areas swill we improve conditions for both. One of the things I would have liked to have told you about Foxy was the trip to Japan with the aboriginal dancers:) It was really quite funny. Perhaps another time, everyone had a ball . Sponcered Aboriginal Dancing for the Children forever. With 'ALL' of the funds going back into the 'kids 'to keep it going year after year. Anybody can do these things. If we all just did a bit more instead of talking about it As for your digs about our proposal to work with each State Premier what a pity more people dont at least try. So far we have 'two interested' but need more. I think its clear no matter what we post- be it our work with Aboriginal Communites, Muslim leaders, Farmers or RSPCA it will been attacked. Our Organisation prefers to work with RSPCA QLD The Humane Society and for that we have been bullied for years and some of you- not all have supported it. How sad.

Dear PALE&IF,
Thanks for all the links. I don't for a minute doubt the good work that you do, and I wish you well with it. I was very involved in my local community - both professionally, and with volunteer work. However due to my health problems, and family problems, - I've had to cut down on a few things. I've got quite a lot on my plate as it is. Anyway, Thanks for thinking enough of me - to want to share. All The Best Posted by Foxy, Sunday, 15 February 2009 9:29:52 AM

You’re most welcome. We might not agree on Political Parties but I know your fair dinkum about us do something for Aboriginal People. What get up my nose is the huge amounts of funds that have gone into projects overseas as a joint effort by both sides of Politics and Churches and Islamic Councils. When they same requests are put in for our own Aboriginal People the Churches honestly don’t want to know about it.- Most not all. Steve fielding is the absolute pits. Try to find time to read that news article I gave you printed by the Aboriginal people themselves over the next year. You’re probably going to find it as a real eye opener. I felt really sorry for Kevin Rudd because I think he really wanted to do the right thing and say sorry. Admire him for that. Problem now is going cases filed for pain and suffering. He’s created a nightmare for himself. As much as I work with many people some others are anti ‘whatever’ is suggested. They hijacked Kevin on Australia day and I honestly think it was in poor taste after accepting the nomination for the award. I am sure Kevin Rudd won’t forget it any time soon. Nobody likes a slap in the face when they have reached out as Kevin Rudd did. That wasn’t right to do that on that day at that time to Mr Rudd IMO. You and I look like happy a beefup on your other thread :) Take care fair Lady. Posted by People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming, Sunday, 15 February 2009 12:31:31 PM

You've nailed it. That was what I was trying to say - but
obviously not succeeding. It is this image of' self'
that needs to be achieved that is so problematic after
all these years of being put down by our white society.
That's a good place to start.
I'll write more later - have to run now - am taking mum
to the doctor's.
Have a great day,
