With respect Karyn, I seriously doubt you could feel his pain. He is the
oppressed, and when it comes down to it, your people, my people, are the
oppressors. "Freedom is a road seldom traveled by the multitude."

This raises questions in my mind as to why someone white is running an
Aboriginal Studies program. I don't care how good this person is at it,
there are plenty of very good aboriginal people out there who could do a
better job. This is no different from having a Man run a Women's study
program. Do you know if this person is still running it, Karyn?
