    How poignant that Jack Charles and Archie Roach performed this song together before both their recent passing. Too precious.

    Great talk and beautiful singing and guitar playing too, the harmonies were gorgeous. Thanks for stepping up to the plate Uncle Jack and being there doing the job for the young people who are coming up against the unfair machine-like system.

    Well done to this brother, whats sad is that.. aboriginals in australia have to learn another language english instead of their own and then come out to something like this to teach white people whats wrong with the systems instead of whites realising themselves. Thats just mind boggling but i guess this is the only way. Goodluck brother.
