 Our Group Believed that we should respect and be freindlier to the Aboriginals, in order to form a more perfect nation; and create this preamble.

 The Indigenous Australian is mostly crowded but it sustains only 27% of the population of Australia. They live in the remote settlements but often located in the site of the former church missions. They suffer an difficult health and economic lifestyle. In the year of 2004, Ex – Prime minister John Howard initated the contracts with Aboriginal communites, where they mentioned about financial benefits, which they will include for the return of the commitments such as like ensuring children to clean themseleves and to attend school. These is the contract for the Shared Responsibility Agreements. This was seen in a political shift from the ’self determination’ for the Aboriginal communities. With that been criticised as an “Paternalistic and dictatorial arrangement”.

John Howard tried to back up the failures of the previous policies of his goverment and saying “We must recognise the distinctiveness of Indigenous identity, culture and the right of the Indigenous people to preserve that heritage. The crisis of the Indigenous soical and cultural disintegration requires to be an strong confirmed of Indigenous identity and culture as a source of dignity, self esteem and pride.” It happened at the year of 11 October 2007 in the Sydney Institute.

In this preamble, we have mentioned that the federal goverment of Australia, now led by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, done a speech about the apology to the Indigenous Australians over the Stolen Generations.

In the year of 2002, the data was collected on the health status from the Indigneous Australians reported that was their health was likely fair/poor and one and a half voted that they had disability or an long term health condition. The expectancy of their life in the year of 1996-2005 was 59.4 years for the male and 65 years for the females, which means that it is 17 lower from the Australian average life expectancy.

The Aboriginal or the Indigenous students leave school earlier, but live in a lower standard of education, compared to the today’s average students. Even though the situation is slowly getting higher with other helps between 1994-2004.  With the two levels of participation at education and training to the Indgienous Australians and their level attinment may be retained below from the non-Indigenous Australians.

39% Of the Aboriginal students were remained till year 12 at high school with the difference of 75% of the Australian populated as a whole. 22% of the indigenous adults were at a vocational or education qualification, 4% of the Indigenous here rated as”bachelor degree” or higher

Mostly in crime, a indigenous australian would most likely be 11 times more chance that an non-Indigenous being caught. In the year of 2004 mostly around June, 21% of the Indigenous were the prisoners. This has drawn the publiciticy by the “Royal Commission” into the Aboriginal deaths in custody.

Tania Major Tania Major was born on 13^thJune 1981, as the daughter of Peter Taylor and Priscilla Major. She went on to study at Clayfield College then Griffith University in Brisbane. She graduated with Bachelor of Arts in Criminology and Criminal Justice. In 2004 she was the youngest person to be elected into the ATSIC (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission) at 23. In 2007, she was announced as the Queensland Young Australian of the Year and also Young Australian of the Year. Now she is a Regional Councillor for the ATSIC. Mandaway Yunupingu  Mandaway Yunupingu was born in the Northern Territory in 1956. He is most famous for being part of the band ‘Yothu Yindi’ where the songs described what it was like in Aboriginal life. He was also the first Aboriginal principal at a school in Yirrkala, Northern Territory and during his ‘reign’ he made sure that there were lessons which included both Aboriginal and European perspectives. During his time in the band he hoped that music would teach the Aborigines how to live a better life. He worked really hard to try and get a good friendship going between the Aborigines and the Australians and for this effort he was awarded the Australian of the Year in 1992. The First Contact The First Contact between the Europeans and the Aborigines was a large event in the history of Australia and the Aboriginal history. This started at the arrival of the First Fleet which carried lots of prisoners. It was a turning point in the lives of the Aborigines who lived at the time as their ‘sacred land’ was taken away from them. After the colonisation and settlement of the Europeans the Aborigines found it very hard to live as they couldn’t do what they previously used to do like hunt and have corroborees. And, just recently Kevin Rudd apologized to the Aborigines for everything that happened in the past.

2. What supplementry material are you using to back up your thesis point?

The supplementry material that im going to use for the thesis point is my own poem, because it backs up all of the topic for the exposition.

1. The most significant moment in the Indigenous History occured this week was when kevin rudd did a speech of saying sorry to the Aboriginal People that they stole the stolen generation, and Kevin Rudd said sorry.
