But
what can we get from them? The other question, the other parttja
(part, with emphasis). We're giving out our knowledge, our system,
our wisdom from our fathers and fathers and fathers about the
yidaki. What do we get from them?
The more things we are
giving out to them, they will be using a lot and say, "aw, it's
not
from them, it's from us." That's the other thing, that we are
afraid to do that. Well, I'm frightened. See, that they can take
over the Yol\u systems of yidaki. I'm just saying it,
how I think. That's personal.
Not rejecting |^paki for what they
can learn
about, it's just a matter of, we're doing this... When we going
to your land, to your community, what do we get? B^y\u (nothing).
There's nothing there like coming together as reconciliation
for us. B^y\una (nothing). But they do get from here, from
Arnhem Land, from us, in a lot of ways. Like coming to the Garma
Festival.
Eh bilanya (like that). Why... why... ah baydhi (never mind,
leave it), yow. (laughs) |
