Description

Hannah asked, 'What do you think about this whole reburial business, Lynn?' Reluctantly, Lynn replied, 'I think it's good because they are bringing an old Koori home where he belongs.' Hannah rebuked her, 'You should be ashamed of yourself We're not tribal. We've never been tribal here. That was taken away. We don't know where those bones came from or how to do a smoking ceremony. If they stir up the spirits, no one will know how to sing them back in the ground.' 'But they do know where the bones came from, whoever took them in the first place wrote it down and it's in the museum records,' Lynn pointed out. Hannah retorted, 'You're following whiteman's history. You're letting the whiteman tell you who they belong to. How would the whiteman know?' Lynn replied, 'They are righting the wrongs of the past. The bones should have never been dug up in the first place and now they are coming home; that is better than them sitting in a museum on display.'
