Experience A Modern Day Walkabout!!


The Australian government is trying to correct some of the mistakes that we Americans created in dealing with our American Indians, having ruled that when any minerals are found on Aboriginal Land, the wealth is shared with the native peoples. The city of Jabiru, in the Northern Territory, is one such instance of this policy being put into effect. It is a very modern city with beautiful parks and lakes. It was created using funds from the mining of the natural resources in the area.

The problem that has been created is that the Aborigines have lived in the bush for 40,000 years and are having trouble adapting to their new life, new housing is built for them, but they refuse to live in it, living instead out side the houses.

They have lost their motivation because everything is given to them by the government,as a result alcoholism and drugs are a major problem.

The Aborigines are actually Caucasians, they are only black because they have lived in the sun for thousands of years. If they wear a shirt  and then take it off they are white where the shirt was worn.
