With the exception of our indigenous peoples, we Australians, New Zealanders, Canadians and Americans are ALL immigrants.

GingerAntics Thank you!!! We‘ve got massive idiots here in America who are starting to claim that there is no such thing and a Native American and they are immigrants that should go back where they came from. The absolute idiocy and ignorance of this drives me nuts. 6y
TrishB I went to an interesting talk on race and immigration in work a couple of months ago. The lecturer said put your hand up anyone who‘s 4 grandparents were born in the U.K. in a packed room about 3 people put there hand up. 6y
Freespirit Totally agree. Unless your indigenous your an immigrant! 6y

gradcat @GingerAntics @TrishB @Freespirit Yeah, it‘s one of those things that seems kind of obvious...until you see the kind of idiocy that motivates hatred...and now it‘s quite dangerous idiocy as well. I don‘t remember ever being this disheartened about the lack of understanding & empathy so prevalent all over the globe today. 6y
Cinfhen So true 6y
Bklover Yes we are! 6y
GingerAntics @gradcat I completely agree with that. 6y
Centique Amen! 6y
Freespirit @GingerAntics @TrishB @gradcat @Cinfhen @CarolynM I feel the same especially following the killing of so many people in New Zealand this week. I hope I‘ve brought up 3 young men who care about others, respect women, aren‘t racist, love the planet..just got to keep spreading a message of love and respect 6y
Cinfhen Amen to that @Freespirit 🙏🏻 6y
gradcat @Freespirit You know what? I bet your sons are fine, just because of your own awareness to these issues. 6y
