At 1:24 did this wrinkled old bitch just say "one of hteses niggers must have escaped?"

@dewayne408

No, she says "My younger brother was only about 16 and he had a rather scary experience walking down George Street one day and one of these negroes must have escaped somehow, and he was running for his life..."

The Australian accent takes a bit of getting used to. :-)

Damn! If I think to all the sorrow that black people have suffered, and they are still living, such as discrimination, I realise that the coluor of skin is only a way to give pain to diffent people. Of course there are also black horrible people which are criminal, but I'm sure that the most part of them is loyal to the country. God bless US!!!

@Australian123Gamer bro it wasn't just curtin, all the prime ministers of Australia up until the 60s were full advocates of the w.a.p, it's just the society they grew up in and so it was just the way they thought. The people who made the w.a.p. did think about the aboriginals.. they didn't want them to be a part of society. :(

Australians are not racist. I am Half English and half Bermudan.I was on holiday there for 2 weeks after I got out of the Royal Marines. It was a great place very diverse foods and people. I'm from Manchester, England and loved it there. Great beer, fine women nice weather, what a great place! Aussies are great but that accent is as bas as many people think of Mancunian accents lol!

@1Dougy85 here the fights weren't small it got to he point where people rioted at the treatment of the black soldiers, people were killed in these riots.

[1Dougy85]

@Hperman09 Small fights, like when a US officer in Europe got his face knocked in after he tried to give a Canadian soldier hell for dancing with a black women who just happened to be Josephine Baker to large fights of 1000 like in New Zealand known as the battle of Manners street that started after Americans tried to prevent New Zealand natives from entering a club and New Zealand soldiers didn’t agree.
