Native title is not a culturally safe process, it is based on unequal power relationships. Western perspectives have introduced a patriarchal system where men’s business and initiation sites are seen as more important than women’s business and birthing sites. From a young age I have seen grown men fight physically due to 'native title,' their identity has been stripped slowly. Native title isn’t healthy … Native title yet again plays a big part it’s killing my Elders. They all should be relaxing and passing on stories to the next generation yet they are fighting a fight set up by white man to kill them off quicker, native title is emotionally, mentally and physically killing my Elders. Native title just a white man thing that thinks men’s business is all we have. And now men act that way too because that’s what native title tell them is true. Western research has misinterpreted and misrepresented Aboriginal cultural traditions and values throughout colonial history in Australia. The layers of historical documents that are relied on by courts are known to be incomplete, inaccurate and in some instances, completed by administrators with little or limited literacy skills … It does not deliver justice. It results in procedurally produced inequality and promotes further misconceptions about Aboriginal cultural processes of decision‑making and custodial duties. I find the system discriminative against Aboriginal people and our Traditional Land. This is a complete disgrace and abuse of the system that continues to deny our people land rights. Native title is a farce. As women, as we get older, we learn more about our culture and have more understanding of all the things native title talks about, but that’s the same time we become mothers and we have responsibility now for all the children and siblings and parents in our life. The men are all looked after by the women. They can go and talk about all this stuff then and then generation after generation are taught that men have all the knowledge.
