Your first thought
Am I right?
I’m black no good
Lazy
Must be an alcoholic
Yep I’m right it’s exactly what you thought
Australian aborigine useless
Contributor to society
My colour confirms your belief
Did you ask me what I do?
Did you strike with me a friendly conversation?
Did you ask me some advice or offer the same
No
Of course not I’m black
Your respect is missing
For humanity
For black knowledge
Ability
For a real Australian
I am Pastor Sir Douglas Ralph Nicholls
