Indigenous Australians ARE BLACK. I’ve just come from tiktok after seeing lots of Americans say that First Nation people are not black. THERE ARE OTHER PLACES AND CULTURES IN THE WORLD OUTSIDE OF THE USA.

I myself am white, so if any Indigenous Australians are uncomfortable with me saying any of this please let me know and I’ll take it down. Or if any terms/information needs correction please please please let me know.

I have friends who are light skinned Indigenous and they should NOT have to defend their heritage against a country of ignorant fools. My primary example is Malakai and Missy from Heartbreak High, an AUSTRALIAN show, who are having their heritage erased because they’re not “black enough”. How the fuck are people saying that in 2023?

If your country cared enough to acknowledge the existence of others in the world, you would know that Indigenous Australians were subjected to the Stolen Generation. What’s that, you ask? Where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children were stolen from their families by governments, churches and welfare bodies to be raised in institutions, fostered out or adopted by non-Indigenous families, as a way of white washing them and erasing their culture and heritage.

TW: Racism, Death/Murder, Abuse - sexual and physical - (not graphic but mentioned)

They were abused, killed and raped by white people, as well as being forced to have their children as a way of “breeding out the black”. So when you guys say “they’re not black enough”, it’s one of the most disgusting and insensitive things you can say. The amount of pain Indigenous Australians have suffered is astounding, and they’re finally getting some on-screen representation. But here come you Americans, just shitting all over them. African American representation is extremely low, now guess what? Indigenous Australian representation is even lower. To the point where you guys don’t even know they exist.

To this day, they experience systemic racism at the hands of government, and especially the police. Not only that, but Australia is still fighting to change the date of “Australia Day” so that it doesn’t fall on Invasion Day. They’re trying to reclaim land that is rightfully theirs, as well as protect and maintain the preservation of what little history they have left. So before you go shitting on the oldest and longest running Indigenous culture in the world, do your fucking research.

Australian Aboriginals were the first known people in the world to make bread, with the cooking tradition dating back at least 34,000 years!

Eating to Extinction credits Bruce Pascoe as an Aboriginal writer and farmer for introducing him to Murnong. (Correct your errs, Dan Saladino)

In actuality, he is evidently white - as per his ancestry, ie. all four of his grandparents were English. Yet he goes so far in his claim to aboriginal identity that he wrote an award winning booking on indigenous history and practices and operates a huge farm and company selling indigenous produce that he refers to in said book.

If you want to learn more about indigenous food culture, ie. more sustainable and nutritious eating -- look to actually indigenous people. That requires some work, but here's one example: Karlos Baca, an Indigenous Foods Activist from the Southern Ute Nation

https://www.instagram.com/tasteofn8vcuisine/?hl=en

Karlos Baca, formerly a chef, and now a teacher says his students travel from places where there are more gas stations than grocery stores.

"'Here I'm teaching them how to survive the American food system.' Baca is on the front line of a food war, one being waged against indigenous people. The way he sees it, the first casualty is health. 'That's why we need to decolonise our diets,' he says."

"During the class, he took a handful of blue maize flour and mixed in some water, turning the grey-white powder into a deep purple porridge. To this, he added a pinch of burnt wood ash that made the colour of the maize more intense. With a small blade, he sliced tiny slivers from what looked like a gnarled and blackened piece of wood. 'I can tell you my life story through this one bowl,' Baca said, 'and this food can also show you what happened to my people.'"

So I have a small thing in the works. And by small I mean “over 40,000 words before 1900”. An alternate history, if you will.

The gist of it is that a species of camelid survives the Ice Age in North America, allowing domestication by the locals and the building of bigger and longer-lasting settlements across the continent. The Norse come along and, amazingly, are assimilated; the Inuit accidentally cause a plague that decimates (in fact removes about a fifth of) the “Old World”; Kuroda Kiyoshi discovers “France (actually *California); Vinlanders discover Spain. It gets more complicated from there, but the gist of it is that the various indigenous civilizations? They’re still around. Better than that, they’re much bigger players, both at home and elsewhere in the world (ask me about U’lpaltiwey sometime).

(And you would not believe how many languages I had to at least discover if not learn for this project.)

Right now I have five potential ideas for a book in this world:

Kingawa: an abbreviated version of the foundation of the Japanese colony in British Columbia.

The Western Worlds: a peek at the development of Earth in this timeline, from 1504 through to 1899.

The Last Crusaders: a story of a Muslim family living in southern Iberia during the last push against the Emir in Málaga—in the 1880s. Also there’s a Lakota medician working with the militarized equivalent of Doctors Without Borders.

Dugan Quirk: short stories about the titular character, starting with his attempt to round the world in 77 days and accidentally setting off a train of catastrophes in the process. I can neither confirm nor deny that there’s a vampire involved.

The Burning War: the First War of the Worlds, taking place in North America, as told in small snippets from all sides.

So! What say you? Preferences?

(EDIT: ignore the misspelling. It should be Kaaruhaar, not Kaahuraar. Either way, the usual English name is Alcazar, but I wasn’t using that.)

As a Med student, I know how to do research… sort of? I know PubMed and all the ways to get to evidence based information in the medical field.

However, I need help (your help, specifically) (but yes also in general)

I would like to do some research in more of a sociology/cultural field, where would I find trustworthy information on that? Because I’d rather not (just) use Wikipedia, you know.

So let me know if you have sources for this!!

“Australia now is not the country I grew up in, when openly racist, derogatory language was used. But there's more coded racism now.”

Read an interview by Aboriginal Australian activist and human rights lawyer Hannah McGlade in which she discusses the plight of Australia's Indigenous People.

[aressida]

my entry: "Australia’s vote about the Voice and the Referendum. We said NO." - Illiesyra/Aressida. 7/9/23.

Our Australian Politicians do not call the shots. “Play silly games - Win silly prizes.” We will not comply and become useful idiot delusional Australian citizens. And believe me when I say this that our rights and legalities do not matter to our Parliament.

Our government system is rigged and illegal. With the Voice, they are going ahead with it, regardless of our assent/consent. If you believe it will not, you are sadly mistaken. The unlawfulness of the referendum process has already been implemented as we speak, and we know it.

The United Nations has given the Australian Government since 1973 with unconstitutional present version, a mandate of ownership for ALL housing, property, farms and businesses country-wide that will come into effect once the Republic has been officially proclaimed. - Meaning ALL Australians regardless of race or colour lose their properties and houses under Native Title.

Australia is occupied by a foreign colonial military power that continue to suppress first nations people and steal their resources. They want the true Aboriginals to give up the scared land so they can build on it and probably turn it into smart cities. It is not about 'indigenous' voice at all.

Second nation > First nation < Third nation. Using the first nation’s resources for the purposes that they are needed for.

Plan for us to own our equal share of “nothing” together. “You will own NOTHING and be happy.”

I believe the Aboriginals does not want Australia separate, they want a united Australia with us. I believe they are not wanting to regress Australia into areas of different ownership. Not like that. You do not get a united country by creating separate structures and another bureaucratic structures in government. That is why the government refuses to list all the details.

If the yes vote passed, they would have slowed the entire country to a halt and forced reparations.

The “Yes” campaigners need to first recognize the Australian Constitution and understand what a referendum is. They still seem to do not understand our Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia is. They legitimate appear have absolutely no idea as to what they are talking about and are still all over the city protesting, and this is why we must counteract the “Yes" campaign at every turn.

Vote NO.

It is about control, and we are all going to suffer. Come on Australia do not destroy our country.
