How far back are we talking?
The 70s, before women could get home loans, or the 60s where Aboriginals weren't counted in the census? Help us out.
Nah it's all about you can achieve anything, you're special, here's your participation award these days.You're shitting me, a women couldn't get a home loan in the 70's? Australias population count in the 60's didn't include Aboriginals?
They don't teach you this at school.

What makes you say the 80s had steroids and cocaine?

Even that was driven partly because the Queen was a fan of Albert Namatjira's art, but he was unable to fly to the UK as he couldn't be issued a passport given he technically wasn't a citizen.I don't know about the home loan thing (both examples are from before I was born), but it took a constitutional amendment to have Indigenous Australians included in the census (there was some legal chicanery involved with the ability of federal parliament to make laws in respect of only one segment of the population delineated solely by race). Thankfully, this was the most widely endorsed constitutional amendment in our country's legal history.

Until 1967, no they weren't.Hang on, I am 43. Pretty old. I finished year 12 and Uni. Are you saying that an Aborignal in the 60's wasn't a citizen?
ON 27 MAY 1967, 90.77 per cent of Australians voted ‘yes’ in a constitutional referendum to improve indigenous rights and award citizenship to Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders.
Until the referendum, every state had different laws for indigenous people, while the commonwealth constitution excluded them “in reckoning the numbers of the people of the Commonwealth”. Put simply, indigenous Australians were not citizens and had few, if any, rights.

Interesting historical claims re women and loans, which is predominately just misleading false dichotomy to suit modern narratives.
Notwithstanding the fact both my parents had professional careers, my childhood home was is my mothers name, the holiday shack we purchased was also in my mothers name as well as the block next door and I'm pretty sure the various cars we owned during this time were also registered to Mum - and all this was in early-mid 70's...
Moreover the false narrative of so-called historical gender discrimination ignores the fact that most women during this era were not the bread winners in the family and understandably why would any financial institution burden a housewive with a mortgage..?
I also note the attempt to re-write some of our history, mainly by those who wake up the morning looking to be offended by anything, is getting a little out of hand...!!!
I don't know whether I'm surprised that "educated" people are still not aware of this.
As much as I like to sh*t stir crow fans, it's a pretty sad turn of events. Walker would rightfully feel awful, never mind his team mates and those associated with the club that are first peoples.
Nothing funny to say about this other than he's always clearly been a bit of a dropkick
