True Aborigines Come Out In Support of Andrew Bolt

Readers of this blog will already well know of my contempt for Australia’s race laws and the people who have written them and introduced them and now force the Justice system to administer such stinking legislative examples of fascist arrogance and primitiveness.

The tempo of the political assault on Andrew Bolt is increasingly frantic as the left’s foundation is cut from under them by the forces of truth. The truth is coming from unlikely directions, most notably real (not fake) Aboriginal leaders in the real Aboriginal community. Leading Aboriginal scholar Marcia Langton has written an article in today’s Australian newspaper that completely destroys the case against Bolt. A Bolt plaintiff, Larissa Behrendt has viciously attacked Bess Price. Langton comments thus on Behrendts attack-

Whereas Bess, a grandmother who resides in Yuendumu, is a first-hand witness of terrifying violence against women, lives in one of Australia’s poorest communities, and campaigns for the needs of women and children, especially their safety and everyday physical needs, professor and lawyer Larissa Behrendt lives in Sydney in relative luxury as compared with Bess’s situation, has no children, has a PhD from Harvard and is the principal litigant in a case against conservative columnist Andrew Bolt, who published several columns accusing the “fair-skinned” Behrendt and others of falsely claiming to be Aboriginal to get the perks.

Australians, whether they support reconciliation or not, must be astonished at the viciousness of the twittering sepia-toned Sydney activists. Andrew Bolt should be rubbing his hands with glee – Behrendt has delivered on all of his stereotypes, and this time I have to wonder if he is not right after all.

Behrendt, on the other hand, was raised in suburban Sydney. Her mother is white, and her late father was removed from his family. I met him in the early 1980s when he was looking for his people. I worked in an Aboriginal archive and he asked for my assistance. Behrendt’s understanding of Aboriginal culture is not one shared by Mrs Price and the other women of Yuendumu, whose concerns she shows little regard for. It was in the Aboriginal political scene of Sydney that Behrendt found her forte: legal and academic arguments about human rights. She has since turned to writing novels.

The Twitter messages reveal a repulsive hatred of everything that Bess stands for: the rights of Aboriginal women in remote communities to be protected from sexual abuse and violence and to be supported to take up opportunities for themselves and their children. As for the human rights that Behrendt and company laud so highly, how have they been accorded by this crew to Bess in this exchange? Not at all. Her plea for an inquiry into the culture of sexual abuse in her part of the world is “offensive”, according to Behrendt.

What are we to make of this hypocrisy? It is very simple: Behrendt and the other anti-intervention campaign maestros have assumed the role of superior thinkers whose grand education and positions in the metropolis qualify them to heap contempt on the natives of that faraway place where other urban Australians rarely tread foot and about which they sustain a romantic out-of-date mythological view.

Drop the case against Bolt. Repeal these offensive and politically partisan laws. This is a kangaroo court and Australians in this day and age deserve far better than this putrid soviet style assault on logic and humanity.

Hat tip Bez.
