Inquiry finds #British committed #genocide on #IndigenousAustralians
by Lana Lam
BBC News"British #colonists committed genocide against Australia's #Indigenous population in Victoria, a landmark Aboriginal-led inquiry has found.
"The #YoorrookJusticeCommission found violence and disease reduced the local Indigenous population by three quarters in the 20 years after the state was colonised, in the early 1830s.
"Its report included 100 recommendations to 'redress' harm caused by '#invasion and #occupation' - though several of the authors disagreed with unspecified 'key findings'.
"The Commission was set up in 2021 as Australia's first formal '#TruthTelling' inquiry, and tasked with examining past and ongoing 'systemic injustices' suffered by the Indigenous people in the state."
