... Where many aboriginal children were again taken from their families for a better western upbringing. ... When the Europeans arrived in the late 1700’s we acknowledged the Aboriginal existence but we did not really understand them. ...
• Many Aboriginals were dying because of viruses unfamiliar to the aboriginal immune system
• The better weaponry the settlers had available to them
• Also the death of Aboriginal elders left the tribes with no knowledge of how to survive properly
For the English the aboriginals dying would seem like a good position to be in. ... There were also the Missions that the Government help the churches set up to help the current Aboriginal generation to receive a Christian upbringing that would help them when they were living with the civilised kind of people. ...
The missions like the reserves were set up by the APB (Aboriginal Protection Board 1863-1969) and ultimately ended in failure. ... My own final verdict is that the aboriginal people were caused grief and loss as has many other races at the hands of the British Empire and I believe that any compensation should come from the English because it was England in charge when the majority of the supposed damage was done.
