As an Australian, I would LOVE to see our sports men and women do a traditional Indigenous war-dance before 'battle' -- and the fact that it's a welcome *and* a warning, just makes it ever more perfect! I don't agree with everything Goodes comes out with, but I do love that ~ because as an Australian, Indigenous history is part of MY history too - on this land how could it not be? - and IMO we only go wrong as a culture when we forget that.

And then one day, both sides can do the same against the English, and show them that we're not messing around.

Bring. It. On. I cannot wait for the moment when local aboriginal dances get the same respect on the football field as a Haka on the Kiwi rubgy pitch. We're the most Western/Polynesian nations in the world and we have a fantastic opportunity to be the best of both. We should run with it. Then score under the posts.

Adam Goodes didn't do anything wrong. The war dance should be performed more often at football games, show that the Aboriginal customs aren't going to die out, they're still there and must be remembered.

Indeed! We should be learning them in school; just as we should learn Aboriginal languages.
@Loribyn7 жыл бұрын
Indeed they were! But each school could institute classes in their region's local languages. It's at least worth considering.

caveman Versace how about schools just learn the common phrases of their local languages. That way, there's a bit of unity and uniqueness in that community

Oh man those questions are kind of awful, you all answered really well. I am maori and not gunna lie I’m kinda sick a seeing haka! I want to embrace our indigenous cousins from around the world. I absolutely love your war dance, the energy is exactly as they said, it’s a welcome and a warning, same as haka pretty much! Only the energy is uniquely you guys and I love that. I first saw war dance when nz and aus did this NRL game. Amazing!

I've been trying to tell people this forever. No one knows anything about Indigenous Australian people and culture outside of Indigenous communities. Indigenous culture should be taught in primary schools by Indigenous Australians so that the future generations of Australians know more than just what happened with the arrival of Cook but can learn about and integrate Indigenous culture instead of just expecting Indigenous people to assimilate into Western society and adopt Western culture. Integration of both cultures... that is how we can move forward and have true healing.

I'm blessed that aboriginal culture was ingrained in my primary school learning experience. I grew up having many indigenous friends and for me even now when I think of Australian culture aboriginal culture comes to mind first. We had welcome to country every assembly, school concert etc... I don't remember us ever not doing it. We had like id say 20 maybe more Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander kids so thankfully their culture and presence literally couldn't be ignored. I learned about the stolen generation in like year 3 I knew a few kids who either their aunties, uncles, mum, dad or grandparents were part of that generation that were taken. I thought it was weird in HS where it wasn't stressed so much. We never learned about aboriginal slavery though so Australia needs to get real and teach everything in schools about our history, not just what makes us comfortable.

Is doing a war dance appropriate? Heck yes! It is culturally insensitive to think that the only way to behave is that of an industrialized, corporatized European. I am not European, but in defense of even THEIR ancestors, I wonder what their Celtic, Viking, Slavic, or Roman warrior ancestors would say if they knew people disapproved of men shouting, singing, or challenging their opponents before competitions? I am an American female and I am sick of seeing men being emasculated! Men are meant to be warriors! But we've stuck them in shirts and ties and made them pencil pushers. The only way to be aggressive is to rev a car engine loudly or grunt at the gym. You cannot even hang up a phone aggressively with cell phones! When men aren't allowed to be warriors they forget to be protective of women and get disrespectful, letting doors slam in our faces instead of opening them, or not caring what happens to us if we have to walk home alone from work. One exception with modern men is soldiers ( well duh to myself I guess, because they're allowed to be in touch with their warrior nature) I have never met a soldier that didn't call me ma'am or wasn't respectful--whatever the age. And I am not blaming other guys-- there ARE still a few warrior-like men sprinkled out there. Hopefully this will be seen as someone trying to speak out for men, because there should be no debate on whether men should be allowed to act manly. The guys in the video are not hurling insults at the other team, or physically assaulting anyone--that would be inappropriate. A war dance is simply saying "this is my territory, I will honor it and muster all my strength to defend it. Don't disrespect it!" And tribal warfare still goes on, it's just hidden in plain sight, with corporations engulfing one another, people vying for management positions, joining unioins and associations, and developers buying up whole neighborhoods. So since the warfare hasn't stopped, let people scream it out a bit. Might be therapeutic.

Arte Bar mate. You're carrying some horribly heavy baggage. I might just be seeing it from a different angle but she didn't mention any of this stuff. In fact, she didn't show any feminist motivations at all. It actually seemed like you actually share some pretty damn similar beliefs. So calm down and reassess yourself before you make some comment that may really hurt someone. If you're carrying some emotional baggage, *you're* the asshole, because you're trying to spread that same baggage to others

Anonymous Person and to you. I totally agree with your comment. Men are really meant to be a warrior, in some way or another. Maybe we may find a way to express the inner warrior in a *non* violent way, so that it may better fit into society. Btw, fighters are pretty damn similar to soldiers. And the amount of mateship and comradeship in a fight gym is crazy.

Anonymous Person - Oh what a smorgasbord! 'joining unions'? Where does that fit into aboriginal culture? Not all women want men to protect them or hold open doors - many would simply prefer men to behave with respect and acknowledge women's bodily autonomy. The aboriginal war dances really have nothing much to do with holding doors open for women, joining unions or developers buying up neighbourhoods. Shoehorning your pet obsessions into this topic is odd to say the least.
