Kaya moort! Kaya ngany kwob, nidja kwob! Yeyi ngalak Noongar waangka! Maar maar-koodjal bonar? Koora-koora!

I think the worst thing about the education system was how we weren't really taught about what happened locally.

Karni wangkiny, if I recall correctly there was a paragraph on the Pinjarra massacre in year eight (which was portrayed as a "battle"). Absolutely nothing about the apartheid prohibition on Noongar people entering Perth city, let alone the use of Rottnest as a prison/execution centre.

Thank you for the links! I'll make good use of those.
