From your link

Quote:

The song is more than that to the Yolŋu people of East Arnhem Land — it's a story of their elders claiming back a life that was ripped from them during colonisation.

There would be Boomers in this forum older than this video.

What was life like for these people is this what they want to claim back?

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

A load of bollocks.... they've had their Big Men ripping of Govt funds & mining royalties for 60 years.

Looking after their own close relatives & leaving others in poverty.

Your Yunipingu clan are the perfect example.

If it wasn't for white mans money & guilt they'd have SFA.
Colonisation bought them out of the dark ages and has now funded any semblance of a recovery of homelands ... at taxpyayers expense.
