Today we arrived in the town of Moree. I don’t know what I had expected exactly, but I know I’d expected more. More people, to support our cause, more people to care about our mission, sometimes I get so angry about the ‘white’ people, we all walk around and act like we care so much about everything, we say that we are going to revolutionise the world and make it spectacular. How do they expect that to happen? Are they going to ‘revolutionise’ the world on the backs of the aboriginal community? Are we supposed to turn a blind eye on the injustice that is being carried out upon these poor, desolate and hungry souls? If that’s revolutionising the world I want nothing to do with it.
Today when I was walking through the town I heard about a swimming pool, a public swimming pool, however in this town apparently ‘public’ and ‘white people only' (The Australian, 2015) means the same thing because no aboriginal has ever set foot inside the walls. Seriously what could possibly be the reasoning behind that, what could the aboriginal people ever do to deserve such treatment?
I tell you we will not stand for this our group will do whatever it takes to help the aboriginal community (National Museum of Australia, 2007- 2015) ; we will not stand for this discrimination. Join our fight, be apart of this movement and help us bring hope to the Aboriginal community.
