The Furnace (2020)
1/10
Little background research.

The cameleers that came to WA were greatly regarded and respected after the 1880s Afghan Wars for their courage and were not discriminated against at all. Before road traffic in the Pilbara the camels were a vital part of supply and extremely well treated. This is a woke revision.

Bear in mind nowadays the only wild camel herds in the world are in WA in the Great Simpson Desert after they were let go in the 1910s when motors arrived and those Afghans settled into the community as well regarded citizens.

A story is a story, fine, but stories that warp fact aren't acceptable. My family has been up there since 1895 and benefitted then from the cameleers from Broome to Perth. They were highly regarded and honoured.
