Australia's first treaty with Aboriginal people signed in Victoria
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11-13/australia-first-treaty-agreement-signed-law-victoria/106002730This is an incredibly important moment for the people, history, culture, rights, and government of Victoria. It's worth some deep thought in the context of other countries around the world where Indigenous People and colonisers have made a Treaty. In that regard, it's been noted by the United Nations. It's big news globally; don't let anyone downplay its significance.
Treaty, as I see it, is about showing commitment, good faith, cooperation, progress, peace, a shared destiny, and a willingness to acknowledge the inequality and wars and genocide and the hurt caused. On the other hand, I think we should be profoundly worried by anyone (such as the LNP) who says they intend to undo this great work because they're admitting they are so morally and emotionally and intellectually weak that if they have the opportunity they'll tear-up the Treaty and revert us all to the bad old days. They're not saying it might happen by accident; they're stating it as a political goal they're working toward. We should see it for what it is: a terrifying warning. I hope that aspect of the past stays in the past, and I welcome with optimism the shared vision of Treaty and Truth-telling.
Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

An archeological presupposition has finally been proved wrong.
“The White Sands footprints walk us through a different origin story. A 2021 study had dated them to 21,000 to 23,000 years ago. Not only does this mean humans were here during the last ice age, but it also could change what we know about the first people that came to North America.” #Clovis #archeology #FirstPeople

Not what I am saying.
Words in one language are not universal, in particular in Spanish and English, which are spoken in many countries around the globe.And: not even on one continent: #NativeAmerican was deemed awkward by a #BIPOC social activist from #Canada. They require #FirstNation or #FirstPeople.

Stock-based (so-called) 'regenerative' agriculture advocates say "But lots of land has poor soil. It needs cows and manure. It's like a desert. All that grows is native grasses.' Bullshit! Use them and respect traditional landowners.

For those raising littles, we enjoyed reading this book together:
#Keepunumuk : Weeâchumun’s #Thanksgiving Story by Danielle Greendeer, Anthony Perry, and Alexis Bunten, which offers a version of the Thanksgiving story from the perspective of the Mashpee #Wampanoag tribe.
