I'm only at the start but I'm sure they're not going to mention that the white Aborigines are causing all the problems by not allowing any money to go to the bush while they spend it on themselves
I just had someone respond about another video where I was talking about the full bloods and they said full blood dont exist in this country anymore. Maybe if the white Aborigines actually spent some money in the bush instead of stealing it for themselves we wouldn't have these problems
As a British Black woman, I am utterly appalled. I wept uncontrollably at the vast unfairness and injustice. My heart goes out to all Australian Aboriginal peoples. I am sorry. Sincerest love and prayers. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@BrendonHoward-f9q yeah well you probably should assume that, as I was born here and haven't been kidnapped abroad..your as intelligent as the last person I messaged for FK sake is evolution going backwards???
I worked for three months in one of those communities during my first trip in Australia. It was my first ever experience in the outback and it was quite shocking. I was doing deliveries in their “homes”. Things they didn’t need but they were pushed to buy: beds, tvs, candies, couches… all things they went burned the day after the delivery, as old tra pces of burned goods were laying outside the shacks. Also, Tvs without electricity couldn’t even work. The kids were sleeping on the ground or on old dirty mattresses covered in shit and blood, as the walls were covered in the same materials. One 2 yo kid was naked and eating a raw rat on the porch. The houses stench of rot, sweat and dirt. Dead animals in backyard: from dogs to cattle. A total disaster. Now I wanna go back to proper documentation with a camera.
This is the sort of thing they're trying to hide away and I've seen it myself all these people saying such a beautiful race of people but they've never seen this sort of thing
How can people of Australia go on living when these poor people in Utopia are suffering. They help people in Africa all the time from all over the world but there are other poor people as well. Should be ashamed of themselves. Really sad
We give out 40 billion dollars every year for indigenous services. Now I'm going to put that into context, get a $100 note put another one next to it upright flat and do that for 25 km that is what we're giving out every year but unfortunately the white Aborigines are stealing all the money for themselves and not allowing any of it to get to the bush for services where it's desperately needed. They're happy to spend thousands of dollars on cultural days but if a woman needs a dialysis machine or some sort of medical help in the bush no help whatsoever.
And all avoidable if we would actually address the issue of where the money is going. The Australian taxpayer is forking out 40 billion dollars and it's going missing with the white Aborigines who are not spending any money in the bush not our fault
Condolences to all indigenous who moved on with our descendants from here physical world and onto there spiritual world along side those who will not be lost remember us as we do them together one .
You've obviously never been to these communities beautiful is not a word anyone would use when they live with the horror and violence that these communities have. Never heard of Alice Springs where the kids go running through the nursing homes terrorising the residents I suppose that's our fault as well
Because we're not allowed to say to the white Aborigines you're not Aboriginal enough to be soaking up 40 billion dollars a year when you're not giving it to the real Aboriginal people in the bush. Look at the voice referendum not one single full blood aboriginal person was interviewed in that entire process and yet it's supposed to be about them they only pull them out when they want to do the newsreel thing with the prime minister
This documentary changed the way I view most Australian public figures. Especially certain hosts on Sky News Aus. Same can be said I’m sure about those who view Americans under a similar lens knowing what we did to the natives here. It’s disturbing how far colonial attitudes can resonate throughout the generations. And how sick our politicians and media are for perpetuating them, using the suffering and bigotry as a tool
@@veronikalynn5084 way worse than America. Our indigenous people here don't live in terrible conditions like that and aren't prosecuted/killed by our 'justice' system at abnormally high rates. Are there still problems? Yes very much so but, the active treatment of the aboriginals is so much worse than the native american's.
@@WSW0424as a Aboriginal woman from Perth Western Australia who's people are the Noongah people of the South West region of Western Australia which is my peoples tribal name but yes we're still Australian Aboriginal...I have much respect for your kind words and unfortunately things in Australia isn't any better even since this video was made and there's still alot of corruption, oppression, racism and more alive in this country...I have hope though for my people and the rest of Australia to be able to unite and have respect and understanding like people overseas do for my people then reconciliation is highly possible and welcome by me... anyway I just went on a bit when I basically wanted to say thanks for your kind words and respect... much love from Perth Western Australia ♥️🖤💛🦘
@@rosiekickett2617 No thank you for the kind words. Sadly, most Americans have no idea about the Australian governments treatment of your people. If they know anything they just think the atrocities were all a long time ago. It’s time for the international community to speak up about this. Why is there no one at the UN human rights counsel talking about this and pressing the issue? It’s abhorrent and I hope more people are exposed to documentaries like this.
@@WSW0424 I don't doubt that Americans don't know about Aboriginal issues as our government has a great way of managing the news and what is broadcast and to the extent it doesn't reflect upon them... for instance as we're the oldest living culture on Earth some of our Sacred Sites can be more than 60000+yrs old, however mining companies have damaged Sacred Sites and there's no way to get those Sites back so the damage was irreparable and another part of our history and culture, lost since colonization...as for the UN, yes they've been involved in some issues affecting Aboriginal people but not as such as to stop anything from still happening and unless Australia and the wider community makes these changes TBH I don't see anything changing even in the near future...it would be great to see our issues affecting my people on a worldwide stage for the world to see our problems and perhaps help overcome these issues but yeah that requires alot of commitment from people other than just Aboriginal people and here in Australia those kind of people are hard to find as most have their own stereotypes of my people...we can only prayer for a better future I guess ♥️🖤💛🦘🙏 again much respect and love from Perth Western Australia
Aboriginal corporations are given $64 billion dollars a year by the federal government our tax dollars. The needs a royal commission into the aboriginal industry this is terrible
What like getting up every morning at 7:00 going and working in a factory every day then paying half that money in taxes which is then sent to look after the Aboriginal people and it doesn't get there because the white Aborigines spend all the money on themselves.
White Aborigines spending the money on themselves. Look at Linda Burney now she doesn't look like she slept under a piece of corrugated iron last night with her Gucci dress . 40 billion dollars is going missing every year and the full bloods are not getting any of this . Look at The voice how many real Aboriginal people were interviewed absolutely none
Very sad reflection on the history/current state of things. I would really like to have seen some recommendations from John Pilger on how to improve things. No perfect solution and its about finding the right balance and over time taking positive steps forward. Maybe take a look at NZ for some things that have worked/not quite worked. In NZ we have lots of famous Maori recognised for their efforts from pre/post colonisations : thats a simple starting point. Teach your history for what it was (the ugly truth) and bring to light your Aboriginal heroes/role models. Good luck moving forward... (and if you have left a racist comment well you are most likely part of the problem = arsehole).
People keep saying oh we have a solution in our country but you're not talking about a culture that was isolated from humanity for a hundred thousand years these people are very different to any other indigenous group but we're not allowed to discuss this or say that so nothing ever gets done. You can't give up alcohol until you admit there's a problem
Anyway, nice documentary but there are ADS every three minutes. I skip and they come back straight away as unskippable. In 32 minutes I got 12 stops of two ADS each.
Such an important documentary!
I'm only at the start but I'm sure they're not going to mention that the white Aborigines are causing all the problems by not allowing any money to go to the bush while they spend it on themselves
I wept. Thank you John Pilger. RIP
Brilliant exposure of the truth. Thank you. My heart breaks

Heartbreaking real life horror.
And most of it's caused by white Aborigines who are stealing all the money for themselves and not giving it to the full bloods
That ocean view is millions of years old. Devils are just a moment in time.
Not these devils, these devils have come to take us all too hell
Exactly brother :) beautifully said
Love watching the politicians squirm when interviewed by John Pilger
Crimes against humanity, totally sick disgusting,no words to say what they are!!!! Respect to all first Nation beautiful people ❤
You've obviously never been to these communities beautiful is not a word anyone would use when they live with the horror and violence that these communities have. Never heard of Alice Springs where the kids go running through the nursing homes terrorising the residents I suppose that's our fault as well
Swear the money has gone to corruption, how in this day and age are inndiginous people of Australia having to live like this. It is so shocking

Watching Australian open on yearly basis, I would never guess Australia treats its open people in that fashion. Very disturbing
