Yuyutsu,

1. No.

2. No.

All of Australia's Aboriginals were semi-nomadic hunters and gatherers, with each clan having its own territory from which they 'made their living'. These territories or 'traditional lands' were defined by geographic boundaries such as rivers, lakes and mountains. They understood and cared for their different environments, and adapted to them.

We cultivated our land, but in a way different from the white man. We endeavored to live with the land. I was taught to preserve, never to destroy.

Dear Joe,

How typical for White Chauvinist British Pigs to think that everywhere they set their foot is theirs or at best, also of those who follow their culture.

Joe,
There are only two objectives coming out of the conference at ularu.

1. More money

2. More power

Your opening post was correct. We require only one set of laws and one parliament for all Australians.

doog,

Disney too, do you swallow that as well?

Yuyutsu,

Do you ever take notice of what you write ? That last statement is precisely what a 'White Chauvinist British Pig' would use as his/her excuse to deny the right of Indigenous people to define themselves - to assume, in the bog-standard imperialist way, that only YOU define who people are, not they themselves, and they should be grateful.

Indigenous people, on the whole, as far as I'm aware, honestly know who they are, who their parents and siblings are, and who their relations are, whether they are coal-black or bony-white. And frankly, it's none of your business to dictate who is and who isn't anything.

Joe
