There's a Statue of Queen Victoria on display with some Irish or British soldier with a tin hat at a War memorial. But there's no memorial for the First Nations people's genocide. Plus: There is No War memorial for the Frontier Wars. How dare they represent Queen Victoria and the ANZAC before the Frontier Wars. The Australian Frontier Wars are the most important. Because First Australians were the FIRST to die defending Australia from the British invaders. Statue of Captain Cook was removed in Cairns. After 50 years on Sheridan Street, the giant concrete statue has been pulled down. It's now ready for an Australian patriot Statue of Dundalli to replace it, indeed. As an Australian, the British should be forced to remove Burke & Wills Statue.

In Australia, individuals of British and Irish descent are often referred to as Anglo-Celtic, sharing a common lineage. The actions of the Irish and British led to the drastic reduction of the Aboriginal populations in Australia and Tasmania. Despite this, the story of Ned Kelly, a criminal, is frequently recounted. However, there is a notable silence regarding the tragic history of the Aboriginal people in Australia and Tasmania. Indeed, this aspect of Australian history is often overlooked.

Imagine; we are living at a point of history where people dont even recognize that this is from old tv-documentary. Look at te comments!! They really think that this video is just some random youtuber!!! Really, the sound effects, the narrator; old british tv-voice... These people have only seen some reality TV and rap videos.. Makes my stomach turn..
Bizarre decision not to follow the rest after they left cooper's creek only 7hrs ago and towards a water hole. Also pretty awful of the others not to check if the dig had been dug.
}}}}} TIME HAS RUN OUT !! John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Don't ignore this message... REPENT NOW !! TRUST that God raised Him from the dead !! By FAITH accept JESUS's blood alone as payment for your sins unto Salvation, to escape what's about to happen !!
It is a good documentary, however, it suffers from a serious omission. Aboriginals taught Burke and Wills how to make seedcakes from nadoo, however, Burke and Wills managed to forget one critical step, that of soaking the pulverised nadoo seeds for 12 hours to get rid of the enzyme thiaminase which depletes the body of vitamin B1, causing beriberi. Wills wrote in his diary: "My pulse is at 48 and very weak and my legs and arms are nearly skin and bone. I can only look out like Mr Micawber for something to turn up, but starvation on nardoo is by no means unpleasant, but for the weakness one feels, and the utter inability to move oneself, for as the appetite is concerned, it gives me the greatest satisfaction." It is most likely that the combination of vitamin B1 deficiency and vitamin C deficiency (scurvy) caused their deaths. The local aborigines had no problem eating nadoo, but they prepared it properly, after all, they had 50,000 years of experience to teach them.
Interesting historical account that many Yanks are not aware of. Unfortunately, the subtitles are atrocious - next time hire somebody who understands English - maybe one that doesn't drink so much
How could they have been victimized by scurvy with fish and fresh meat? No arrangement for relief by sea? Despite all this they were successful and the country was traversed. It must have been tougher than we can imagine.
As an Australian, I remain disgusted by the entire B&W story, and why it is given such prominence in high school history books. It’s not a story about the European exploration of Australia, it’s a story of hubris and bad luck that achieved nothing. The take away from the story has nothing to do with the significance of exploration, what was actually observed, and the consequences of this activity for the nation. B&W is served up as the main event of the period of exploration, when it was anything but. How many other Australian explorers are house hold names, and does anyone know their stories? The plan and simple fact of the matter, is most people do not know what the explorers had to say about what they saw… and this ignorance has not served us well in our collective understanding of this nation. Significantly we hear almost nothing about what the explorers saw.
No one had crossed Australia from East to West or vice versa until the new Century. Sadly this has information they had no idea about, so I wish it had narrated this as it effected them in time
Mum was a Pre School Teacher and gave me plenty of Australian Story books about the History and Flora and Fauna , way back in the 70's. It helped make me more Australian considering I was 6th Generation as well. The Burke and Wills , Flinders , Stuart and Blaxland, Wentworth and Lawson
