Where the disabled toilets are does not matter to me anymore… but…

In between lockdowns, I spent the weekend with friends on the Bellarine Peninsula. We went out to lunch at a very popular vineyard.

Albert Namatjira is happy with what whitefella gave not what the blackfella takes Part 3 of 3

It was not what the whitefella gave Albert Namatjira, more exactly, it was what the blackfella took from him that made him lose his will to paint and live in this world anymore. They took his kindness, they took his money, they smashed his dignity, and they trashed his home. They fought with him and made him cry on the inside. They took his freedom. […]
