There are many common stereotypes of Aboriginal peoples. One is that we are all the same and conform to the idealized image of the naked Aborigine standing with spear in hand watching the sun set. This is a picture which quickly dissolved into the reality of the 21st century. We are as different as the landscapes of coast, desert, rainforest and snowy mountains. The land is different and so are we, the first peoples of the land. - Dr. Irene Watson, Aboriginal lawyer, writer and activist What is the significance of dots in contemporary Aboriginal painting? How many languages were spoken in Australia before colonisation? What did the Mabo and Wik decisions mean?
