"The Aboriginals were the first people in Australia. They were the nature - the nature was them."

Introduction

In many years the way the Australian nation treated the Aboriginals, has been left in silence.

The Aboriginals were seen as animals, and treated the same way.

Many big battles have been the reason for over 10,000 both Aboriginals and Europeans death. It was battles without rights for the Aboriginals.

I find it terrible and senseless that nobody respected the Aboriginals. They only wanted justice and respect. Instead they were hunted as animals, away from the land they had lived on for many years before.

The true story about the Aboriginals and the killings has been a reality for only a few years. Now people start seeing which terrible background they have.

There are a lot of homeless Aboriginals today, and there are organizations to help them, but still I think they deserve a better life and future.

A positive thing is the Aboriginal art. The art has been kept for many years, and I see it as a great opportunity to retain a part of the true Aboriginal culture and history.
