Kanyani B+W footage

March 13, 2008

In my opinion i think that the usage of black and white films are used to tell the views that this happened along time ago in the olden times. Bob randell was part of the stolen generation, spending his time searching out who and where is family are. Bob Randell was interview in  the documentary because he has experience certain things when he was in the aboriginal time and living a aboriginal life and also been part of the stolen generation.
