"If you can imagine the one family continuously occupying the same land for 40,000 years or more, using it not just to sustain life but as a place of reverence and worship, where every tree, rock and waterhole had significance, you will get some understanding of the importance of land to indigenous people.” Tania Major

‘History in this country has often been written by people who haven’t even spoken to an Aboriginal person and I really object to that stuff. Unless it is colonial history of course, because all the informants are gone now, those people can’t defend themselves, nor can they give their own views.’
