Opinion
There's no disputing racial genocide in early history
BOB Buick, I'm no Rhodes scholar either.
I get my information on the history of Aboriginal occupation from the Australian National Museum.
Before you go accusing anybody of lampooning anybody else, maybe a dictionary search of the word, may be of assistance.
Keith Whiteside is welcome to voice his opinion just as we all are.
I was merely pointing out the insignificance of approximately 200 years of history compared with approximately 65,000 years.
Whichever way you put it, our Aboriginal people were here long before white occupation wrongly declared Terra Nullius and began racial genocide.
