ANZJ Crirn (1982) 15 COMMENTARY ON THE 1981 JOHN BARRY MEMORIAL LECTURE Senator Neville T Bonner* I thank you most sincerely for your kind invitation to be present here tonight, and for the opportunity to listen to Mr Clifford's illuminating address. The Aborigines, of which race I am fiercely proud to be a member, have been the subject of many reports, dating back to the days of George III, shortly after colonization of Australia. Right from the moment Captain Cook landed in Australia, you will notice that I avoid the word "discovered", as we, the Aborigines, never thought of it as being lost, countless millions of words have been written about us. My race has been legislated for, legislated against, and in the so doing, have been placed under the microscope of public scrutiny and opinion to no avail. I say to no avail as a generalization, for in too many instances, those who have researched and prepared these reports, have been white pseudo experts, who have set themselves up as authorities, and attempted to judge us with European values. Regretfully, no matter what fine ideals and motivations which prompted them, they were of little consequence, and altered nothing.
