This is about, Gregory John Ugle, a traditional young Nyungar boy with a rich cultural heritage and lifestyle.
A boy with parents, brothers and sisters living in a small wheatbelt town of Bencubbin. I was living as a traditional Nyungar in the bush later adjusting to life in a small country town.
I would live in my country with my parents until an Australian LawThe 1905 Act would impact on my life and the lives of my family and change our lives forever.
A Domestic dispute between my two parents affected by alcohol. My fathers imprisonment and my mothers hospitalisation would part us for many years to come.
My dad was taken by Police and jailed. Me and my brothers and sisters were taken by Welfare to another tribal land. Torn from our secure family and taken to a distant unknown place.
From the mouths of lowly racist government leaders right up to the Priministers from the first time of colonisation to twenty first century. Aboriginals have suffered at the hands of a racist nation been hounded and seperated from family for the colour of our skin. It is not until the Priminister in office Mr Kevin Rudd that I Quote (FOR THE PAIN, SUFFERING AND HURT OF THOSE STOLEN GENERATION, THEIR DECENDENTS AND THEIR FAMILIES LEFT BEHIND WE SAY SORRY. 13 February 2008.
For me as a Yued man 2008 I as a child I did nothing wrong yet I was punished to the full extent of the laws, I am now at peace within my heart a burden was lifted.
And so begins my journey, and my story of being a Stolen Generation.
