Note: The terms Aboriginals and Aborigines are not favoured by many of those they are meant todescribe. Some prefer other designations like Indigenous, First Nations, Natives, Original Peoples,Originals, Sovereign Originals, Original Sovereigns, Original Tribes, Original Mobs, TraditionalOwners, Traditional Custodians, Murries / Goories / Koories, or various names in their respectivelanguages.
We acknowledge and respect this cultural preference and apologise for any inconveniencethat could be caused by the use of the more formal terms Aboriginals and Indigenous in this report, forgeneral clarity within conventional and legal terminology while honouring the ways they choose to use.
The terms Murri / Murries are used in places, as it is common in language in southeastern Queensland,especially referring to the modern Aboriginal community born during the mission era of intermarriagesbetween displaced Aboriginal individuals of different tribes, with members of other ethnic groups.Known as ''Historical People'', those Murries have most often lost their languages and the history oftheir origins, and they are often of mixed-blood, but they definitely identify themselves as Aboriginals. #VoteNoToTheVoice #deebingcreek #yuggerah #deebingcreekmission
