“The past is never dead. It’s not even past.”
- William Faulkner.
The pain and dislocation of the stolen generation era lives on in all its descendants.
It will take many more generations to heal.
To our Aboriginal community, as Member for Mildura, I am sorry for the cruelty, the brutality and the sheer idiotic racism that led to thousands of children being ripped from their mothers and families.

It’s unimaginable pain to have a child ripped from you. We’ve come along way, but have a long way to go. 🖤 Racism is in everyone’s circle. We hear it and we read it from friends and family… be a joke, to be cruel or just lack of education ; we just have to be brave enough to call them out on it… it’s never OK…. 🖤
The Past Oodgeroo Noonuccal Let no one say the past is dead. The past is all about us and within. Haunted by tribal memories, I know This little now, this accidental present Is not the all of me, whose long making Is so much of the past.
Thank you Ali Cupper .. much respects to you
Don't forget the children that were bought to Australia in world war 2 . Shipped from the UK in boats and taken to church camps these kids were also abused. What the governments of that era did to families was a crime.
I am sorry, too.

Belive it or not it is still happening today but not under the old protectors of aborigines act of 1901 but under the child safety act

Recently our team was treated to a full day of visits and activities in Nullawil, a little Mallee town which punches above its weight, especially when it comes to wheat production and football premierships. Thanks to the Nullawil Historical Society, we were provided a full guided tour of the Nullawil heritage museum, which has a rich local history.
.
We were so grateful for the local hospitality and especially the organising efforts of our own Nullawil girl, Sandy Pollington, who was also busy with preparations for the official opening of our Southern Mallee electorate hub in Birchip. Although the hub has been operating for a while, it was great fun to officially introduce the community to our new base, which has helped us to stay connected and accessible across the vast expanse of the Mildura electorate.
.
The opening was well attended by locals from Birchip, Nullawil and Wycheproof and it was a great excuse to spend some time and money in two of Birchip’s premier nightspots, O'Donnell's Cafe and Wine bar and the Birchip Hotel. ... See MoreSee Less

Ali, thank you for bringing this information about these little towns and their people. Unfortunately the inner cities have forgotten all about them. Well done.
Claire Margaret Rose Cook! ❤️
Well. Done. Ledgend. ❤️
Might have to work on your pronunciation, “Nulwl”
