    I dont know, I watched living black, and I dont think the programme made it clear what the respect campaign is about.

    The town camps were once respectable. The people living there have smashed the windows, burnt the doors and left the rubbish. Stop saying "we want" "we want"..... you will set a better example for your kids if you take ownership of your situation and go and get a job.

    Respect comes when people listen to each other. I think it is important to remember that all black and white Australians are each on a different journey. Some want to meet in the middle of the bridge and hold hands - others will go around or under the bridge to avoid change. Change will only come with Education of our young people.

    History, esp. Alice Springs region 1890-1970, needs 2b taught in detail in schools. RESPECT campaign teaches polite respect; knowing yr history is the bridge to deeper respect.
