NITV CH34

Mega exciting that indigenous Australia can now talk to all Australians through their new free to air TV channel.

The trick is to have SBS encourage its viewers to watch CH34.  A sample I viewed enabled me as a non-indigenous Aussie to understand more about the history of Aboriginal life before 1788 and after 1788.

Get it out their so that the ratings suggest a difference is being made and indigenous Aussies are being given the respect they so richly deserve.

The challenges for non-indigenous Australia will be to tolerate and live with the nuances of Aboriginal cultures as they exist in the 21st century.
