More blackfella nonsense all whistled up from their imaginations as part of the Grievance Industry.

"A lack of understanding by university staff about the cultural obligations and traditions of Indigenous students is affecting retention rates.

Fewer than half of all Indigenous students complete their degrees, compared to about three quarters of non-Indigenous students, according to a 2016 Australian Centre for Educational Research report.

In an attempt to address that gap, Warumungu man Ethan Taylor organised the first national Indigenous student conference in Canberra — discussing barriers keeping Indigenous people from studying at tertiary institutions.

"Having to explain to tutors, 'Hi I wasn't at class because I was at a smoking ceremony' — sometimes it's very difficult to articulate these things when it's not the normal 'I wasn't at class because I'm sick,'" Mr Taylor said".

Bullshit of the highest order.

They've developed a 'respectable' reason why aborigines have such a high drop-out rate. Nothing to do with the demands of academia - hell no!. It's all the fault of the teachers for not pandering to their regressive bullshit in the year 2017.

Idont have a problem with it as such...

after all we have war memorials  and sacred cemeteries where many were killed.....as long as they list both sides..

......historians tend to make it all a one way battle...at the end of the day  no one was there at the time...records were not exactly kept like they are today...

is this really what Aboriginals want?

or is it more like  some sanctimonious white people who think they are doing a massive service ... with a look at me look at me  goody twoshoes  smugness..

There used to be a law that aborigines had to be outside of town - on the other side of boundary road - after sunset. That's why every city has a several boundary roads a few km's from the CBD. As the city grew and suburbs sprang up outside the boundary, they eventually changed the law and said that aborigines must be inside boundary road after dark.

Did you listen to the tune?

They sound exactly like what they are

whitefellas trying to talk like blackfellas with some made up lingo.

Here's a couple of real aboriginal choirs

Womens



Men

They're okay, gonads.

Those aboriginal ladies know what the hell they're singing and dancing about. They're telling ancient stories with sincerity, understanding, and appropriate movements, but this 'choir' of white folks is just plain embarrassing and unconvincing ~ and then the guy with his hands in his pockets ... Give me a break!
