Rastafari Speaks

Re: Aboriginal genome analysis ...and ethic *LINK*

Thank you Sis for your reply.
The article itself was quite badly written and uninformed. I have to also agree with alot of what you have said.

Absolutely the struggle is for the return, that is, the REPATRIATION of all remains back to their decendant families to be dealt with in an appropriate manner.

Culture -lifestyle, language, stories, dance, song, food,the ceremonies of life and death, artifacts and above all the Spirits of the Old People - we must note is unconditionally tied to Country, to the area of land belonging TRADITIONALLY over thousands of years to your family through your ancestors.

Ceremonies for the safekeeping of the Spirit once it leaves the body are endemic to all peoples.I am sure Adam and Eve buried Abel with due ceremony and ritual.
The west's museums must be held accountable for the 'treasures' that have stolen and return them to their rightful owners all over the earth.
It is a very bizarre compulsion this 'collection' business
Genetics is a fascinating process but really only tells a small part of the whole story of mankind. That being so we can all see these things that are presented as facts are open to interpretation by a so-called elite number of individuals. Only.
Science the new religion.

The introduction of alcohol has been arguably the worst thing to happen to Aboriginal People after the loss of land. I made a stand against alcohol several years ago.

Diabetes results from a diet of high, salt, saturated fats and sugar. It is what I call "whitefella's privilge" white flour, white sugar, white rice. We can see that amomgst ALL the poor and downtrodden in the west that diabetes is at deathly levels. But if you eat at macDonald's, eat that sliced white bread in a plastic wrapper ...
"Conveniance food" - what an evil joke.
