Patrick Wolfe on Stolen Generations as genocide as defined by the UN Genocide Convention (2008): “scholars who stick to the UN definition, among whom are to be found the more eminent international authorities in the field, display a remarkable degree of unanimity. Tony Barta from La Trobe University, Ben Kiernan (who, though from Yale University, is an Australian), Robert van Krieken from the University of Sydney, A. Dirk Moses, also from the University of Sydney, Colin Tatz, formerly of Macquarie University, together with a number of others--long-time specialists who run centres and edit journals devoted to genocide studies--have stated unequivocally and repeatedly that the Australian program of abducting Aboriginal children amounted to the crime of genocide at international law.” [1].
