=__** Reflection on Boori 'Monty' **__= Meeting Boori was a great,enjoyful and funny experience he shared with everybody many stories about himself and his friends, which filled the room with laughter but also taught us about how the Aboriginal people 'Black fellas' used to be treated. Boori was just like an everyday person his first words were "yes i have a car yes i have a phone" showing me and everyone that he was no different from us spite him being Aboriginal. I felt sad to hear about the way Boori and other Aboriginal people were treated it was extremely unfair and should not have happened. I was also glad to hear about the things Boori's father did to stand up for himself after all the hard work he had done, it might not have been the most respectful thing to do but after the way he was treated i dont think it really mattered. i Saw Boori standing up in front of all of us and not being affraid to share his stories about his like and interact with us.When Boori played the Didgeridoo he brought a unique and friendly feel to theatmosphere and it was a great experience and privalidge to hav him at killester.
