ESPECIALLY the First Nations people who’d been there for 50,000 years before European sailing ships arrived and really messed shit up

One of my aged habits is to “Re-Read Books I Read When Was Too Young” (RRBIRWIWTY ™️)

At the moment, it’s Robert Hughes magisterial work from the early 80’s - The Fatal Shore.

I read it in about 1985 and I didn’t understand shit. Now I get it.

#Australia - man that was hard work for EVERYONE
