I’d be proud of my “white privilege” in that situation. After all, I’d be working to treat patients from a racial/ethnic group that couldn’t come up with a “trained nurse practitioner” in 10,000 years.
But then there's this:
"Indigenous professionals totalled more than 14,000 people, equivalent to 13 per cent of the Indigenous workforce in Australia." (Aboriginal Professionals, 2013)
Not sure how "Professional" is defined in Australian labor statistics, but I know it includes health care, education, public administration, and more.
I don't thing the indigenous themselves are race-baiting this issue, so much as the parasitic grievance class, most of them University educated and many of them non-indigenous.
