I'm surprised the ABC use the term 'Stolen Generation' in their article. The high court ruled in 1997 that there was no stolen generation and the removal of children was beneficial in intent. 🤔 Actually I'm not surprised the ABC ignore the high court of Australia. 😛

Better than what usually is passed off as art by them. The rescued generations have something else to be thankful for.
