RE: "Don't Keep History a Mystery" Reconciliation Week & Ecotrain's QOTW 'What Small Change can We Make to Change the World?'
stirring piece dear. I got chills from that quote from the first video (didn’t watch it yet with the shoddy internet due to thunderstorms). I have heard a bit about this yet it is always so devastating to my heart when I hear it again. So so sad. So much wisdom and true earth dwelling connected people “shot on sight”... crime! Swept under the rug. I’m so glad you wrote this post- to get it out there more. Excellent excellent post. Your solution reminds me of this image my friend shared earlier on Instagram:
Such a great mural.
Do try to watch the Grant video after the storm. It's So beautiful and well done. He's a clever man and well respected here.
The devastation that has been done to Aboriginal people is so shameful to this country. But what's worse is pretending it didn't happen or wankers saying political correctness has gone too far and that such education in schools threatens the status quo. Or that they should stop getting 'hand outs' or they should 'get over It' or... a woman on morning TV saying kids in troubled Aboriginal families should be put up for adoption AFTER ALL THE BRUTALITY OF THE STOLEN GENERATION.
But I believe we are progressing. I just wish it could happen sooner.
Thanks for commenting.
Im glad we have progressed enough to have campaigns like this one
