If we have a treaty, which Nation will it be with and will such Nation be a nation as defined in today's terms or in anthropological terms?

Is Mise,
Again, why don't you ask your questions of people like the Hon. Ken Wyatt. Minister for Indigenous Australians, or Prof. Marcia Langton. She can be contacted at - m.langton@unimelb.edu.au I've already given you the details for Ken Wyatt. Or alternatively do your own research on the topic.

Dear Foxy,
I think about the variables all the time, it keeps me awake at night, it does my head in. Love anyway, Joe Posted by Loudmouth, Tuesday, 4 June 2019 5:47:08 PM

How can any nation have a treaty with a few of its own citizens? Or, if those people are going to be recognised as a separate nation, would they still be entitled to our welfare system, our education and health system? Or would they be treated the same way as other foreign nationals?
And how does this work when over 70% of indigenous people have non indigenous partners? One partner has rights and citizenship that the other doesn’t? Cousins are split on racial lines? It’s already a morass, as I should know. Try applying for custody of a child when you are white and your grandchild is black and see if you can come out of the legal system with your sanity intact Posted by Big Nana, Tuesday, 4 June 2019 5:59:08 PM

We can't possibly consider everyone as equal when one group doesn't want to be equal !
