Indigenous Criticism of Indigenous Rights

[edit]

Indigenous academics namely Aileen Moreton-Robinson and Hemopereki Simon are critical of the system of indigenous rights in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. Moreton-Robinson writes in relation to the UNDRIP.[1] Simon writes in relation to the lack of recognition of Mana Motuhake by the Aotearoa New Zealand state.[2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hemopereki (talkcontribs) 22:15, 12 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Canada

[edit]

I could, of course, be reading things wrong (this has been known to happen), but the opening paragraph seems to suggest (to me at least) that this is a specifically Canadian topic, although the body of the article addresses peoples from around the world.

No, you're right (as usual, apparently :-)), PurpleChez. It did read oddly. The whole article could do with a bit of an upgrade, but I did a bit of minor copyediting on the lead to remove the specific reference to Canada. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 02:20, 10 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
