    I don’t like the brutal ways our indigenous people were treated like slaves / brutally killed
    had children taken to be used as sex and child slaves ....but it still go’s on behind closed doors still today.

    with all nations / colours right here in Australia and I expect everywhere around the world .
    My DIL who lives in Broken Hill ( eldest sons wife ) came from one of the poorest parts of the Phillipines
    She lived in a tin shack our councils wouldn’t allow us to keep chooks in :eek::(

    Kate, was that fire recent? The accents are certainly different from here.:)

    Craig and Kate, I think most of the damage from settlement was from Europeans bringing diseases that the natives had never been exposed to. I know that measles wiped out a lot of Native Americans.

    Very true Shirley. Yes indigenous natives had no resistance to western diseases. But that is in addition to the attempted deliberate eradication of entire races on both continents.
