Indigenous Australians were classfied as ‘Flora and Fauna’ until 1967.

Just gonna leave this here for anyone who believes that Australia is not a racist country.

We’ve only recognised Indigenous Australians as fully human for less than 50 years. It takes a lot longer than that to gain full equality and justice for survivors of colonialism and systematic oppression.
