<!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>So important are Songlines to Aborigines that unsung land is dead land, and if a song is forgotten, any land which is no longer sung over, will die. To allow such a thing to occur is the worst possible crime for an Aborigine. To be able to sing a Songline indicates an historically unbroken, intimate knowledge of the land. In short, it marries people to place. This is called ownership.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br>This is actually happening in Australia.<br><br>The land is dying in many places, salnity, a lack of of water, dodgy farming practises and a complete lack of laove for the land is what is destroying it. <p></p><i></i>

...i take it those guys arent teaching anyone else the lyrics...can a white man even muster the basic general divinity to sing these tunes? <p></p><i></i>

I know a few whitefellas that have learned songlines and stuff that goes with them, but I guess aboriginal people feel like everything they have gets stolen by white australia... <p></p><i></i>
