Alcohol is banned and not sold on Elcho Island for all those people saying they spend it on booze.... Also the ladies do take care of their land and houses as well as they can but imagine if you had 50 people tramping in and out of your house everyday. It would not be so clean either and in the end you would probably just give up.
@@anenkaorin7786 this is my land. I paid for my land. I pay taxes to support my country. I work hard everyday tp contribute towards Australia and all its people. If me and people like me "went back to where we came from" (which is super hypocritically racist of you buy the way) we would be fine. Those left here would suffer not us.
@@MARKYPERTH it's super hypocritical of you to state you care for all people of this land, but we don't want your money, we want our country. We don't care for money like you people do. We had all our resources. White people have their own homelands, they should take their ways back there.
@@anenkaorin7786 hehehe... yes we hear that but I think we all know it wouldn't go as well as you are fantasising it would. But you can believe that if it makes you feel better. Oh! Do we get to take everything with us ?
Everything Black were destroyed physiologically and physically! Colonization is not what we think it is! From Australia, the Caribbean and to Africa are now reaping the benefits of abused for generations! It's a depression running through the blood... It's so sad!
Its called intergenerational trauma from the way their ancestors were treated. You think that kind of thing isnt passed down? It's not depression in their blood it's being born into a family that has had generations of bullshit happen to them.
@@RubyStark10 so in European countries that had hundreds of years of invasions, slavery and so forth... all white... how come they turned out differently?
I never knew how much racism aborigines experienced here in Australia, our family always valued them respected them... I just assumed most other families did as well. I will go out of my way to smile and be extra friendly if possible from now on because of what they had to face. Must be really terrible being victim of racism like that.
once you receive free things throughout your life, you become used to it so much that it starts to feel expected and it means very little. Me and my brothers were given everything(free house, free cars, free vacations) spoiled to the teeth. And we were treaty to boot, so I got free university tuition, free books/supplies & a 1,000/mth check as long as I attended college.
Just watched this video and i thought it was great but the fact that the lady in the pink top opened her big mouth was disgusting, she should think before she opens her mouth next time.
Now your talking. But they don’t want to up-skill the Aboriginal people because you can’t employ contractors to do the same job. You would be taking away jobs from white people. And this is not good for white people. Keeping Aboriginals down and out makes money for others…
Indigenous people were doing fine long before colonists ever came along.You deserve the hostility you were met with.All colonists no matter their complexion
A prayer for you. LORD JESUS I am a sinner and I Repent of all my sin’s, Please wash my sins with the Precious Blood of JESUS today, I turn away from all sin, and I receive you into my heart today as my Lord and Saviour, Please write my name in the Lamb’s Book of Life, and please send me the HOLY SPIRIT to help me live in holiness, and establish your Word in my heart and protect my heart. Amen
They are in the bush right? If there was no whites in the country there would be no complaints of houses being too small because there wouldn't be any houses. Small communities have been offered to move to a more central hub where services and amenities can be provided but it is turned down by aboriginal elders as they want to stay where they are. I can understand and respect that, but there should be no complaints about what is not provided if there isn't a two way street.
If there were no whites, wed be freely kiving on our land, the fact youse colonized us that we have become accustomed to living in houses, my people are not allowed to live off of our own land, we are forced into your white society, they not only havent fully adapted to but just plainly dont want to adapt to, your white way is not THE way. If we had it our way we woukd be living off the land, not destroying it, polluting it, etc. Go along with yaself, their in a lose lose situation.
@@talarnieparsons713 I appreciate where you are coming from. I do agree completely that if aboriginal people were left to their own devices they would still be living off the land today, just like few tribes in other parts of the world still are. The sad truth that history shows us, is that if it was not the english that turned up on this land all those years ago, someone else would have and the results could have been better/worse but we will never know. To say aboriginals are forced to live in a white society is something i would have to disagree with. Aboriginals are more than welcome to live off the land, on elder land and by no means have to live in a house if they choose not to. Are you telling me if you had it your way, you would not want a computer, the one that you are typing on, or a car, house, electricity, healthcare and education to help better yourself and your family? If this is true, and you would prefer this life i get it, but unfortunately going back to my first point if it was not the english that turned up, someone else would have. I sincerely hope you have a bright future.
@@polarbear1291 there is a lot to talk about. We can’t just make simple statements and assumptions. I think the point is help up-skill Aboriginal people to help themselves. But this would take away jobs from white contractors. So no one is going to up-skill Aboriginal People. White contractors will lose money and jobs.. And it’s even deeper than this. This issue is really complicated to explain in RU-vid comment section.
@@stevew4260 um, some of these people don’t want to live in a house? They prefer the simpler life. Well informed are you? How so? What experience do you have? I may know a little something too you know. But you first. How informed are you?
@@stevew4260 so that’s it? You’re well informed and that’s it? Is there any more you can add? Like what do you do? What experience do you have? Who have you consulted? What feedback and from whom do you have?
