Another thing that would be good for many to know: Aboriginals from remote communities are very wary of being shamed (dishonoured) by mainstream Australians, and by the tone of Rebel News, posts here and on twitter confirm they're right to be wary.


You are a sad apologist for these racists. Had you watched McGowan's lecture you would have seen that the interpreter was not speaking anything other than English with a very few native words thrown in. If someone could understand that then they could understand McGowan.   In any case the entire tone of his speech was patronsing and condescending even without the 'interpreter'.  Roll Eyes

Have you been to remote Australia?


Yes. You? McGowans woke racism has been shown for all to see and the usual suspects don't like it. You are tying yourself in knots trying to defend the indefensible, but deep down you know that you cannot.  Roll Eyes

Yes I have and, as you have, you'd recognise the woman's vernacular.

Something to consider.

'Mark McGowan had an Indigenous interpreter translate his COVID safety message from English to Kriol (a widely spoken Aboriginal language). Sadly,the video (https://fb.watch/avWpAak5Kw/) has been widely mocked & criticised. This article explains why the video is not racist.'

The full statement below.
