Oh, I forgot to mention that the television show had an interview with a personal friend of his, Australia's Minister for Environment, and former Midnight Oil lead singer Peter Garrett. You have to love a country where you can get the political and cultural response rolled into one.
I don't think you offended anyone. I thank you for sharing this sad news. I'm not sure I would have known otherwise, and as I posted in another thread, I saw Yothu Yindi in the 90s and was simply awestruck by the experience.

I'm an FOB immigrant so I'm not sure about the name thing but the images, yeah. The news show I watched last night made a point not to include any images of him, but included the standard disclaimer to Aboriginal and Torres Island people that it may contain images of people who have passed away. The pragmatic interpretation seems to be that the restriction applies to Aboriginal people seeing images of their people.
I'm sorry if I offended anyone.

I just heard on the radio that his name may not be mentioned, nor his image showed, according to Aboriginal tradition, now he has passed away. Probably only the Aboriginals can still obey that rule, more or less, in this internet age.

I was just talking about All in the Family with someone on a terrace, last week, in relation to Keeping Up Appearances and George and Mildred. In the last two series the women were very dominant opposed to Edith Bunker. I think most of us know / knew relationships like that.

I know everything. I just don't always have time to Google it.
