The fact its pointed out that its "white" people who were taking the children, "its white people who were 'plucking' children away" makes me sick. They could have been civilised aboriginees taking the children for crying out loud. It didnt matter you know why? because it was white people that did it. The whole point was to take them out of poverty and give them a proper home. While I do NOT agree with what was done, it does not make white people racist nor was the ill harm meant overall. and all that bullshit about "half casts" and breeding them out is a load of crap. Im so ashamed of Australian cinema. Its on the same line as crocodile dundee and everyone outside australia thinking we all travel around in kangaroos and live in a desert.
In your thread you stated that Rabbit Proof Fence (I assume you mean the Stolen Generations) was a "misunderstanding". Could you please explain that statement?
hey there. I really appreciate you reading my post, but I think you may have misunderstood my intentions. My aim was to bring awareness to Australias Identity and whats to become of the corruption that is constantly disguising itself as helpless asylum seekers coming into the country. As far as racial discrimination goes, Im quite sure that you have been misinformed. No matter what you have been taught, There was no racial inequity in Australia and that is something that really bugs me. I dont like to beat around the bush, So ill get straight to the point. America enslaved black people, not australians. If anyone should be pointing the finger to racists here, the finger should be pointed directly at America. Australians didnt have anything to be racist towards in the begining. It was purely a white colony. As I have also stated, we live in harmony with aboriginees. Whatever you have been taught or brought up to believe is false. Though I dont blame you in the slightest, but I have to say that negative feedback was not justified since my 'lack of australias past racism' has absolutly nothing to do with my thread.
