They are recognised and acknowledged to the point that it becomes tiring hearing about it all the time. The referendum was whether there should be a constitutional change, and the country decided overwhelmingly that there should not be. Several prominent indigenous Australians voted no. There's really nothing to see here.

It's possible to recognise them without giving them a special place in the constitution, thereby enshrining race in the constitution (the opposite of the concept of justice being blind to race).

It should be about culture, not race.

I’m quite certain that nobody involved here has been around for 235 or 60,000 years.

Might is right. If they can not defend the land it's not theirs.

It's brutal, it's cruel but it's true. Any other view is mostly based in dreams that never succeeded.
