Eldorado Posted June 9 #1 Share Posted June 9 An Australian newspaper has offered a historic apology for its coverage of a massacre of Aboriginal people in 1838. At least 28 people, mainly women and children, were brutally murdered in the New South Wales town of Myall Creek. The massacre was the first - and only - time colonists were prosecuted for mass killings of Aboriginal people. The Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) admitted to spreading racist views and misinformation while campaigning for the killers to escape justice. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-65852772 Myall Creek massacre https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myall_Creek_massacre 3 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
