Thanks so much for this, Anne. timely and well put.

It sure is difficult to feel good about being a human - and it looks like we are
about to enter an even darker period of history.

Just one small place to start: I don't know how may people have been watching
the "First Australians" series on SBS recently - but I do think we should make
it an integral part of history courses in all Australian schools.

Kind wishes,

John Hill
