I heard Noel Pearson on Radio National this morning, gushing how the "Yes"to the Voice side is coming from the side of Love. You can read about the message here:
Pearson rejects Voice rage, says Yes side must ‘maintain the love’
This, it seems pretty clear, is an attempt to reset his advocacy from his (and Langton's, and quite a few others) position that (my paraphrase, of course) "to vote No is essentially a racist position that ruins everything about race relations forever, and so we will justifiably hate you and this country forever more."
I have not heard that opposing it would be racist except for no advocates alleging always without evidence.
ReplyDeleteI would have not expected Noel to take this side. Perhaps it’s coming from personal frustration at not getting enough access.
ReplyDeleteA very real problem. Aboriginal elders should be listened to all the time. But the solution is fake. Do we know which foreign reprobates are behind this?
