Sad to see Paul Kelly is promoting racist issues with his hillbilly songs. A great American actor, Denzil Washington , when asked about " racism " and how to combat it, replied. " DON'T TALK ABOUT IT"

Just because Denzel Washington said "Don't talk about it" doesn't mean it's the only viewpoint, to me, people who agree with him are probably people who don't want to talk about it and as long as people want to ignore the issue it will never be resolved. We have come a long way on the issue of racism over the last 50 years or so since the 1967 referendum on aboriginal citizenship and the Mabo and land rights decisions of the early 1990s, neither of which would have been achieved without talking about them. But there is still a long way to go and a lot more discussions to be had and those discussions are probably best started in the education system at a young age as many major changes in society tend to be a generational change as I know my views on race as a kid growing up in the 1950s are a lot different than my views are now.

@@neilfromdownunder9204 No Neil your views over 70 years haven't changed. Your Reconciliation path is an " Never ending and unforgiving story " Can you tell your " White Brothers , when this pathetic overture , of self pity and deliberate blame , will end . You don't deserve an apology from the Australian people . You hide under the empathy of false news, because it suits them, and whether true or not, they will print it. Your scared to say " Whites are Racist" when in truth, you make yourselves and your wonderful people , by your remarks , inferior to other wonderful races. Your on the right path for us to grovel to you , and apologize to you for all the wrong doings , we White trash have done to you . I't is happening in America now ,in the schools , and under the direction of of the most racist president ( despot) in the history and ruling of America. God help Australia and your racist agenda .

@@ellaharvey7597 There's no way I would support you on anything, you have one very huge chip on your shoulder & I doubt you will ever get rid of it. As for coming to Australia I had no say in it, but my forbears chose to come here in 1848 & I thank them for it.
