1992 - Speech given by the then Prime Minister of Australia, Paul Keating, at
Redfern Park in Sydney - "We took the traditional lands and smashed the traditional
way of life. We brought the disasters. The alcohol. We committed the murders.
We took the children from their mothers. We practised discrimination and exclusion.It
was our ignorance and our prejudice. And our failure to imagine these things being
done to us. With some noble exceptions, we failed to make the most basic human
response and enter into their hearts and minds. We failed to ask - how would I
feel if this were done to me? "
