It is symptomatic of how all non-Indigenous Aussies participate in colonialism by being more aware of BlackLivesMatter in USA but not in AUS

We're capable of caring about multiple things - but White politicians' citizenship raised more empathy & media than Aboriginal child's death

Australia, we have a problem - it's not in the past (genocide, slavery, eugenics that most barely know about as it is); it is here & now.
-
If non-Indigenous Aussies collectively do nothing & expect Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people to find justice, then we're culpable.
