Just watched John Pilger's "Utopia".
I can't believe Indigenous Australians in a first world country live in conditions akin to third world countries. There is no excuse for it.
http://johnpilger.com/videos/utopia-trailerIt was bad enough that the Brit's took away land from the Indigenous people, incarcerated, tortured and beat them, but subsequent Australian governments have made it far worse.
One bloke interviewed believed Australia needs international aid to give adequate, housing, health and education to Indigenous people, as though the Australian establishment is too incompetent to sort it's own affairs out.
