Has TED EVER had an Australia Aboriginal speaker? If so, where can I find the talk?
I am an Aboriginal academic, and my personal/professional goal in life is to present at TEDs. I would feel a lot better about this being likely if I knew TEDs had invited an Aboriginal speaker to present.

Apparently just a couple of days ago at TEDxManitoba, three aboriginal men were interviewed on stage and made quite an impact. Unfortunately the video isn't yet uploaded, but take a look at this: http://www.nothinginwinnipeg.com/2011/02/towards-a-more-diverse-tedx-manitoba/
Also there was this from TEDxSydney, though I'm not sure it meets what you're looking for:
