" putting the words 'Trump' and 'truth'"

Agreed. The MSM rarely tells the truth about Trump.

Try reading other sources.

Back to the topic.

Here's another interesting link on why our kids should
learn Aboriginal history:

Foxy,

History is the study of the past as it is described in written documents. Events occurring before written record are considered prehistory. It is an umbrella term that relates to past events as well as the memory, discovery, collection, organization, presentation, and interpretation of information about these events.

How can Aboriginal history be studied when there is no written record?

"The national history curriculum implemented across Australia from 2011 provides the opportunity for educators to comprehensively tackle for the first time 50,000 years of Australia’s history"

It would seem that someone somewhere needs a bit of English education.

Issy, spot on.
Foxy's link.
I am revolted at words like 'elaborate rituals'?, 'long distance trade'?, 'works of art'? and oh yes the real clincher, 'engineering feats'?, FEATS none the less.
What a disgusting attempt at trying to promote a 'sows era as a silk purse.
Why is it that those of us with a pragmatic, objective attitude have to put up with these morons and their attention seeking, imaginary but in reality, nothing, agenda?
As you correctly point out, this a boraginal thing we are suddenly having to consider as something it clearly is not, the fact that there is NO history to learn and all these ridiculous achievements are a beat up, because no one can prove any of it.
I will finally put this whole BS to bed by a simple test.
If these a boragines were such a brilliant people and actually were quite advanced, as we are being pestered to believe, ad nauseum, then where is the evidence today, and why are they so "'primitive', 'stone age', 'nomadic', 'unevolved'", unquote.
It reminds me of a story once told to me by a guy who knew a retired tour guide, and told him of the miracle of the cave paintings, like one he happened to revisit after retirement and was amazed to see some new paintings on the walls near where the 'alleged' ancient ones were.
Issy there's NOTHING outstanding about these people, or we would have found it years ago.
This whole LIE is being created and perpetuated purely for monetary gains.
It's a 'beat up'.
It's just another attempt at making something out of nothing.
I can understand the motives of Pascoe and Westaway, the latter receives funding from Griffiths University and the Australian Research Council.
So anything they have to say on this subject is instantly rendered moot.
And then to put the final nail in the coffin of this, yet another failed attempt at trying to make the a borigines look like something they are not and never were;
Griffiths University provides funding as a member of the "Conversation" AU, unquote

There are 4 kinds of people to avoid in the world.
The assholes, the asswipes, the ass-kissers, and
those that just will shite all over you.

Keep rolling your eyes guys - you may find a
brain back there. ;-)
