  • Australians are going to the polls in a general election this Saturday.
    Many indigenous people in regional Australia say they feel left out, and that the major issues affecting their communities aren't being debated.
    Al Jazeera's Andrew Thomas travelled to Fitzroy Crossing in the remote Kimberley region of Australia's north-west.

      Australia belongs to ALL Australians irrespective of our race. It does not belong to one race only. Apart from that, before you put pen to paper, I hope you are aware that Aboriginals today receive MORE rights, privileges and benefits than any other race here (including every other minority race). If you want all Australians to receive equal rights and respect, fine. If you want one race to have more than other races, that is blatant racial discrimination which I find extremely abhorrent indeed.

      Yes it's disgusting ,the people that are causing this are the land councils the people that are in charge of looking after the Aboriginal people who are extremely corrupt and steal all the money. The Australian taxpayer gives these people 40 billion dollars every year we don't know what else to do and still we're getting blamed for something that we're not responsible for

      After Tasmania won the war the Canberra govt comissioned a constructed language and shipped people from other islands to take over the task of the "true natives". Also don't forget that DNA testing to prove your aboriginal ancestor is literally illegal in Tasmania.

      My IQ is 112. Tests have been done on many individuals over 100 years, in different parts of the country. The results are always between about 55 and 70, with the average being 63. We can't just ignore this, or how are we supposed to help them? Do you know that they are teaching mainstream curriculum in Indigenous schools, where the average IQ is between 50 and 80? Then they wonder why the attendance rate is 20%, and 0% of the students pass. Government and NGO policy is to "Close the Gap"... they are seriously spending all kinds of money trying to figure out how to get mentally retarded people to pass mainstream curriculum, because customising the curriculum would be "racist".

    What actually happened was that a colonial war was fought and the Aboriginal people lost. They lost their land to the Europeans - the same way that an Aboriginal tribe could lose a war to another Aboriginal tribe - and the tribe that won then had a right to exist on and from the land that they won. In the hearts of many Aboriginal people they want to rise up and reclaim their land and their traditional ideologies (the ones that evolved with their ancestors), but if the Aboriginals rose up the European political structure is still so strong that they would probably be decimated by the Police and the Army.

    Aboriginals today enjoy every right, privilege and benefit enjoyed by every other race in Australia AND MORE. Aboriginal activists today demand a 3rd Chamber in Parliament ONLY for Aboriginals. One person, one vote is not good enough for them. Furthermore, Aboriginals demand land ONLY for Aboriginals. All land in Australia must belong to ALL Australians irrespective of race.
