I never learned about this in school!
"This is an all-too familiar response from those learning Indigenous histories
in Australia.
The recent take-up of false claims – such as that a Voice to Parliament would
result in “special privileges” — suggests large gaps in public understanding of
the Indigenous political movements that preceded the Voice.
Considering what children have learnt in our schools in the past, this should
not surprise us.
Our research, soon to be published in the
Nordic Journal of Educational
History, shows that for over 100 years, the Victorian school curriculum has
failed to give generations of students the chance to learn about Indigenous
political movements."
