I’m white, don’t consider myself racist, but can see how I am part of systems that uphold cultural oppression of ‘other’ groups, particularly Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. My politics lean left. My learning goals have included learning ways to be respectful and sensitive to the educational needs and cultural differences of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. My pre-existing knowledge of Australian Indigenous people has been influenced by the media and the whiteness of my upbringing. Analysis of article etc to be done in formal academic writing style.
