Original Note:
Noel Pearson's statement is a logical fallacy, by claiming Aboriginal people are excluded from the Constitution. Aboriginal people are in fact recognised as Australian citizens, and have been since 1948. As such they are covered by the Constitution, and not excluded. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280397463_Reconfiguring_History_The_Flora_and_Fauna_Act_and_other_myths_of_Australian_legislation https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/10/22/fact-check-myth-claims-australia-classified-aboriginals-animals/3717730001/ https://apo.org.au/node/305732 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-03-20/fact-check-flora-and-fauna-1967-referendum/9550650
