Aboriginal Learnings

@utopia @Appleblossom and I all have more than a passing interest in the stories of our Indigneous People and so I have opened this thread for us and anyone else who would have something to the Historical Stories of the Cultures of our First People

My son was born in 1969 and died in 1986 - it became apparent that he was of a different skin colour during middle childhood I guess - and by the time he died it was very obvious -

There is a popular opinion I imagine that all our Indigneous People are dark-skinned - but that is not necessarily the case - my son had an olive skin, curly black hair and brow-ridges - and it is not what anyone else ever thought or felt about it - the whole issue was what he thought and felt about it

Now Utopia has brought it to my attention that there are website about their culture and I know Apple has been working in this area for a long time so my aim is to follow up what I can from the website on Aboriginal Culture that Utopia has mentioned and opened this for more discussion

This is not done to right the wrongs of the past but rather to open discussion about the future and what their culture can add to our culture and our future

@Appleblossom. It's amazing how much is out there when you start looking. How great to live in an area where 3 tribes met.
Feasting. Marriages. Information. Trade. Must have been a wonderful time.

@Former-Member - yes it's a documentary. A father filmed his child / adult for about 10 years.
I'm hoping I can get my local cinema to show it. As I'd love to see it.
