'Rare, almost unheard of, are the stories of Aboriginal men as sensitive, soft, loving and vulnerable people. Yet it is these qualities my research has revealed are most valued by our people. The notion of “Emu Men” has emerged throughout my PhD. Male emus are the primary carer for their chicks. The male partner will sit on the nest and the father rears the babies. This notion of manhood and fatherhood - someone dedicated to his family, who has a primary responsibility to ensure the safety of his children and their passage through the world - appears to be deeply entwined in many of our peoples’ customs and cultures. In Uncle Archie, we find the most profound sense of this alternate masculinity. His songs will live on forever. But he also gifted us this alternate image of an Aboriginal man: someone soft, tender, loving, vulnerable, generous, resilient. Someone profoundly strong and with an inner wisdom, who sat on his nest and looked after his family and young people experiencing hardship.' - Bhiamie Williamson

No other person can change people's thinking the way brother boy Arch did with words that told the truth of a law that stole a generation of people's lives that can never be given back or recovered. I've known many of the Stolen Generation people and everytime I play this song I shed tears for them as my show of support and that is the legacy that he has left .. miss ya brother. Phill Solo.

She was born
In the river land
Born of her mother, into her mother's hands
She was free, as the river was wild
She was so innocent,
Such a beautiful child
Then they took her away
From Paradise
Where everything was beautiful
And very nice
They took her away
Her mother's tongue
Slapped her around a little bit
To teach her another one
In and out of institutions
What could they do with this child
Where was the neat solution?
There was nothing they could do
So they gave her to the street
And she joined all the rest of the hungry and the tired feet
And they took her away
From Paradise
Where everything was beautiful
And very nice
They took her away
Her mother's tongue
Slapped her around a little bit
To teach her another one
And the pondies they don't swim here any more
And pondies the swim here any more
She met a boy
Who kind of knew
Some of the things that she was going through
But he was confused
So he ran away
She found him again
And here she is today
And they took her away
From Paradise
Where everything is beautiful
And very nice
They took her away
Her mother's tongue
Slapped her around a little bit
To teach her another one
Took her away from paradise
Away from paradise
Away... Away... Away from Paradise...
