The constant demands placed on Aboriginal people to be the educators is tiring.  Surely it is time for non-Aboriginals people to begin their journey of discovery by themselves.  It is too much to expect Aboriginal people to be continually explaining their oppression - as if somehow it is their fault and they have to talk and write their way out of it.  And do others really listen to their pleas?
