In your opinion what is the most important thing our Western society could learn from Aboriginal people? |
| Adam Snow from USA |
How to live in harmony with the land instead of the land conforming to what we want. That's what we Americans can learn from our natives and it's what we all can learn from the Aborigines. After all they've been doing it for 60 000 years. |

Dream time the alternate reality within our minds and its effects on our lives. The art needs more support. I am sad to see it "displayed" in museum basements. If it was easier to find it would influence the conscious of artists all over the world. |

There are so many things I can't really see a way to star the answer..probably I can't do it. Western society is too full of hypocrisy false idols and stupid points of view about leaving with the world that we definitely can't learn something that can really change something. |
