I know there hasn't been a lot of posting on this blog in recent months. That's been a factor of several things.
As of today, Walkabout is going on an indefinite hiatus.
As per my G+ status update:
I'm sitting in my "indigenous studies" class, and have decided that my ongoing roleplaying project "Walkabout" needs to go on indefinite hiatus.
While I seem to have been treating the assorted cultures and beliefs with respect, there is still a lot more to learn. I also want to make sure that there is a lot more input from aboriginal artists, scholars and thinkers. Not for their aboriginality, not to give a "more authentic voice" to the work, but to provide opportunities as general artists, scholars and thinkers who aren't being given opportunities because they happen to be a marginalised group.
The issue is far bigger than it's being reported. So there's some deep thought necessary.
So ... in order to provide them more opportunity, you're putting this one on hiatus?
