    Lincoln: un verdadero presidente.

    Saludos United States of America.
  • tacit geese said:
    Abraham Lincoln lived every moment of his 56 years with a thoughtfulness of others always in his heart. His wife supported him and encouraged him throughout his career. She suffered the losses of many close to her and suffered grief that no parent nor wife should have to go through. She was not insane. Grief stricken yes. Today we have access to therapies that years ago they had nothing for. I believe she was his anchor and his mentor. And he hers.
    I think he had a wonderful life full of meaning, challenge and adventure.

Womens quarters at Barambah Aboriginal Settlement 1911

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    A Salvation Army officer at Nanango, William Thompson, secured the severance of 7000 acres from the Barambah pastoral station in 1901. The allotment was gazetted as a mission station and known as the Barambah Industrial School. Its establishment predated the beginnings of Murgon township by three years. Thompson gathered local Aborigines onto the mission station and was superintendent until 1904. Conditions were rudimentary, worsened by drought and lack of finance. Control of Barambah passed to the state government in 1905, but the superintendent allowed Aboriginal residents to be forcibly hired out for casual labour in the rapidly growing local agricultural economy. Despite this, the settlement became substantially self-sufficient in food (goats, poultry, vegetables), a hospital was built and a sawmill opened in 1917. Improved housing was built with locally milled timber." Source:https://queenslandplaces.com.au/cherbourg-aboriginal-shire-council

    Talking about The First Nation we can not escape historical facts and consequences of colonisation.
