Thread Name: Review: Australia, the movie. Ozcats?
Subject: RE: Review: Australia, the movie. Ozcats?
I do take notice that folks from Oz refer to the native peoples as "indigenous peoples" instead of "aboriginal peoples". Is the latter considered to be unsatisfactory or demeaning? For me, it is the term for any of the original peoples in any land, with special or "large A" use for the Australian folks. I am open to being corrected on this.

All the best,

Mick
