    Extractions: by J. Clancy In Australia we have had a meeting of great white minds in the form of our Highest Court, which decided (after 200 years of not noticing the inhuman sufferings of Aborigines) that before the British soldiers arrived in 1788 with a mass of petty convicts to make us part of the British Empire, there were PEOPLE living here. Those people were a race of intelligent humans with black skins -Aborigines- who had resided here for a known 60000 years. What followed was a mass murder of those residents, especially by white police, graziers, army and business-men. Many were killed in weekly turkey shoots for sport, particularly if they were brave enough to defend their families. This continued till even 1950. Since then, our racist 'Police' have continued with normal murders, generally in secret deaths in custody, but the secrecy has now been exposed into common-knowledge. After so many years of survival on this harsh continent, no genes had developed to make Blacks immune from diseases like measles and also alcohol poisoning. Black people cannot absorb alcohol. Thus our jails have a very large percentage of Aborigines, mainly for being drunk and disorderly, insulting the police, swearing, fighting while intoxicated and generally being unable to understand white-man's laws. The police preferred method is to hang Blacks with football sox or strips of blankets and claim that they had suicided while drunk. Commonsense suggests that two men must have lifted the victim and arranged the other details. The evidence has been clear that tribal people must not be separated from their culture and family members. It is imperative that they not be jailed for minor offences, rather taken to their families and elders to be judged by Aborigine Laws, or, for drunkenness, driven a few miles out of town and left under a tree to sober-up to find their way home next day. Or the police could treat them like drunk white politicians and deliver them home? Some States have laws forbidding whites to sell liquor to them, but the whites have their own laws including making profits from the delivery of booze to an arranged transfer area.

84. Archives Hub: Papers Of Matthew Blagden Hale, 1811-1895

    Extractions: Language of Material : eng Matthew Blagden Hale was born in 1811 and died in April 1895. He was married twice, first to Sophia Clode and then to Sabina Molloy. He was ordained a deacon in Gloucester in June 1836 following his education at Cambridge University. From 1836-47 he served as a priest in the West Country of England in Tresham, Gloucestershire, Wooton under Edge, Stroud, Alderley and Atworth with Wraxall in Wiltshire. In 1847 he moved to Australia becoming Archdeacon of Adelaide from 1847-57. During the period 1850-57 he helped to found and was Mission Superintendent of the Native Institute, Poonindie, Southern Australia. He then became the first Bishop of Perth, Australia from 1857-75, and finally Bishop of Brisbane from 1875-85. On his return to England he retired in Clifton, Bristol. These papers cover the period 1677, 1822-1895. They provide a good account of both the personal and working life of Matthew Blagden Hale. They include diaries, correspondence, official papers, sermons, press cuttings and photographs. Of particular interest is the material relating to Australia. This includes detailed material on Pooninie in Southern Australia and the foundation of an Institute for Aborigines at Port Lincoln in 1850 until its closure in 1895, with photographs of aborigines, correspondence with the Australian government, and others. There is a selection of materials relating to the aborigines. Also included is material relating to the positions he held in England and Australia. This material has not been catalogued in great detail, so all correspondents are not mentioned.

Waage does not write that 'many aborigines are going to waldorf schools in Australia', as you loosely and untruthfully reformulate it. What he writes is: *According to Staudenmaier, Steiner and his followers hold the opinion that the Aborigines would best serve humanity by dying out. In the real world of the anthroposophical movement, these people have influenced several Waldorf schools in Australia with their culture and their myths.10 In one such school, the majority of teachers and students are Aborigines.11* Reference 10 refers to an article in the Waldorf magazine Erziehungskunst (The Art of Education) no. 2/1996, Stuttgart 1996.

    Extractions: Home About me Contact Links ... Legal information Last update: December 17th, 2002 Australia: Contents The Australian natives are dark- skinned and have black curly hair. They like to paint their body with white colour. They came to Australia about 30,000 years ago and also brought a new animal to Australia: The dingo, a species of dog. First they settled on the northern coast and were food gatherers, hunters and fishermen. The culture of the Aborigines is much older than the European one. The Aborigines lived in groups. When a group had become too big so that there was not enough food for all of its members, it splitted in two groups. One of them left the area and looked for a new place to live. This process repeated many times until the Aborigines had settled almost the whole continent. There were up to 500 several tribes. In many areas these groups were very isolated, because the land was not fertile enough. So the groups became more and more different from each other and built up different languages and customs. Each group lived around a source of water, that was also regarded as the source of life, for both men and animals. They produced several wooden- tools, like spears, spear-throwers, throwing sticks, boomerangs, digging sticks, fire-making-sticks, dishes and canoes. The Aborigines didn't only use wooden-tools, they also produced knives and axes by hitting two stones together. The Aborigines didn't grow any food and they did not have houses or clothes, they were absolutely dependent upon nature.

    Extractions: Liz Rushen T he Australian protestant tradition has its origins in the British evangelical movement of the late eighteenth century. This form of protestantism, with its emphasis on social reform, remained the dominant christian tradition in Australia during the colonial years. T he British evangelicals comprised many liberal theorists at the spearhead of social reform and they expressed their influence on a wide range of platforms. They campaigned for the abolition of slavery, reforms in the factory system and in the care of prisoners and hospital patients, animal liberation, and better working conditions for children. By the 1820s, British evangelicals were drawn to the idea of the new colonies for the opportunity they offered for non-secular government and religious freedom, opportunities denied at home. M any influential British evangelicals were also deeply concerned with the indigenous populations of the empire. Enlightenment philosophers such as Diderot and Rousseau promoted the law of nature by glorifying the natural. They encouraged the concept of equitable treatment for indigenous populations under European laws. Evangelicals took this concept one step further by promoting christianity not only as vital in itself to human salvation, but also as the means by which all people could become civilized. In this theological climate a series of mission societies sprang up: the Baptist Missionary Society (1792), the non-denominational, but firmly evangelical, London Missionary Society (1795); the Church Missionary Society (1799) and the British and Foreign Bible Society (1804).

    Extractions: Thorwald Lorenzen W e have it much easier than the Rev. John Saunders had it in 1838, and yet we seem to be less sensitive, less prophetic, less obedient, and less courageous. Although we know much more about Aboriginal history and we are much more aware of and informed about human rights, the occasions are few when a Baptist leader addresses the responsibility of the church to the indigenous people of Australia? J ohn Saunders could not have known about modern human rights. They only came into being after the barbarisms of the Second World War when the United Nations were founded (1945), and when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was proclaimed (1948) as the "common standard of achievement for all people and all nations". Saunders speaks of "natural rights" and "civil rights". He probably knew about the French and the American Revolutions with their Declaration of Independence (1776), their Bill of Rights (1791), and their Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (1789). But the talk of human rights that we find in the media every day only goes back to the 1950's.

    Extractions: The Aborigines' knowledge of the Southern sky was extraordinary. They not only made complex and highly accurate observations of first- and second- magnitude stars, but also viewed those down to fourth magnitude as well. That's no mean feat, given the latter's faintness and the Aborigines' reliance upon the naked eye and primitive recording techniques. This incredible knowledge of the heavens allowed the Aboriginal people to create a complex seasonal calendar based on the constellations. Some tribes even used certain stars (particularly the Pointer of the Southern Cross) for navigational purposes. Movements and patterns of stars at particular times of the year helped them predict changes in the weather to determine their seasonal supply of food. Images An Abstract But All-Encompassing 'Dreamscape' Before attempting to understand Aboriginal cosmology, one needs to have a greater appreciation of what they call the "Dreaming" or "Dreamtime". It could be said that the Dreaming was that period of time before time when nothing existed. It is their story of creation.

    Extractions: The Worlds Oldest Inhabitants? The word "aboriginal" means "the first" or "earliest known". The word was first used in Italy and Greece to describe people who lived there, natives or old inhabitants, not newcomers, or invaders. Australia may well be the home of the worlds first people. Stone tools discovered in a quarry near Penrith, New South Wales, in 1971 show that humans lived in Australia at least twelve thousand years before they appeared in Europe. So far three early sites have been discovered in Australia, the Penrith one being dated about forty-seven thousand years old, a Western Australian site forty thousand years old and another in Lake Mungo, New South Wales, thirty-five thousand years old. To put this in perspective, so that we can appreciate the time scales, since the first fleet arrived in 1788 there have only been 8 generations of settlers. On the other hand, there have been in excess of 18,500 generations of aboriginals!!! Aborigines And Their Culture More than 30,000 years ago the population of the world was small, and people lived in family groups, hunting, fishing and food gathering. There where no cultivated crops, animals were not herded for food and metalworking was yet to be discovered. At that time, known as the last great Ice Age, Australia was joined to New Guinea. Islands such as Java and Borneo were larger than today, sea passages between them narrower. This made it possible for the ancestors of the people now called Australian Aboriginals to reach Australia from lands to the north.

    Extractions: Aborigines reportedly managed to prove that they were the historic owners of that land. The people were expelled from the territory in the 1950s, when Great Britain wanted to create a testing ground for its intercontinental missiles. The Martu managed to return back to their homeland only 30 years later. The Martu people lead a traditional mode of life. They hunt for kangaroos and turkeys. They believe that the return to their homeland is a very important step from the point of view of their religion and rituals. However, the Martu will not be given control over the mineral resources or national parks on the territory. Pursuant to previously passed laws, the property rights on national parks, pastures, mineral resources can not be handed over to aborigines, even if the lands are returned to them.
