Lemmy should allow alt text for images: “If white Australia was hunted until only an estimated 10% of the entire population survived; would they demand the truth of their history was recorded & respected?”

Is this contentious in Australia? There is lack of recognition in the US, but rarely active pushback.
They’re making more progress than in the US, but still not anywhere close to mainstream yet. Idk exactly what can be considered active pushback, but u can find lots of colonizer apologia & plain ignorance everywhere
I’m curious what your perception is with the US. There’s been a lot of progress here recently, including a recently enacted federal recognition of Indigenous Peoples’ Day, landmarks with names recommended by local tribes, and efforts to revive remaining indigenous culture from the edge of extinction. The areas where I would still fault the US is that there are still people who want to sweep atrocities under the rug in the name of patriotism or further trample tribal treaties in the name of profit.
If you don’t improve material conditions is all theater, though.
