[Dialogue] Australians to apologize to Aborigines

[opossum2 at att.net]

George,

While I hope (and assume) tht the words will be comforting, I would feel more like something was being accomplished if the apology were to  be followed by some real actions to help the Aboriginal community deal with their current plight.  This will be a very interesting indication of what directions the new government is taking.

Regards,

Could our colleagues from down under (depending on the time of day) fill us in on the proposed apology?


Sounds "Too marvelous for words."
