I went to film school, I am Metis (on my Mom's side, Croatian on my Dads.....yup, a white dude who fled a country for a better life....yes they exist and they get lumped into "Colonial white power" all the time by people on this board), and in school we did an entire section on Aboriginal film. We watched and studied dozens of them and even had a visitor from APTN come to speak with us. I must admit, a lot of those movies portrayed white people as a stereotype of a racist, offensive, capitalist pig. I always thought that was quite offensive and simply not true to most people in this country. I guess it goes both ways. But the "us vs. them" mentality has us seeing boogeymen. Someone painting like you doesn't mean they want to steal your culture  it could be that you simply inspired them as an artist (or human) and that's a beautiful thing. It's something that could bring us together but instead its a topic hijacked by political activists of all types.
