Can I call myself aboriginal?
Do I apologise to myself?
Who exactly are we apologising to?
Who are the perpetrators and who are the victims?
Australia had a population of 4.5 million at the outbreak of WW1 and took alot of immigration since then which settled in urban areas totally ignorant of the settlement which would be required in further generations.
