I feel your empathy as do most for the past and present predicaments. It irks me a bit that all of a sudden there is this voice when the country has for decades strived and exerted various systems and programmes since the passing of my forefathers. My folks from the 1800's were 100% racist and infringed every 19th century fundamental human rights, but their dead now and it was two generations ago.

In the 70's 80's I had a direct involvement with some of the clans in the outback and dealt with the elders, sympathised with the little fellas, watched the lack of parental responsibilities, literally risked life and limb but they are encumbered by their lack of enthusiasm to help themselves. Most of it was selfish behaviour so I just gave up.
