It was extraordinary for me to then be able to embrace and to kiss Aboriginal elders as they came into the parliament building, and one woman said to me, it's the first time a white fella had ever kissed her in her life, and she was over 70.
Para mim foi extraordinário  abraçar e beijar aborígenes idosos quando eles entraram no parlamento. Uma mulher disse-me que era a primeira vez que um branco  a beijara em toda a sua vida e tinha mais de 70 anos.
