Yes, less than 40 years ago Australian Aboriginals were not recognized as being part of the general public of Australia. They were not allowed to own land and any currency they earned was administered on their behalf by whites. As a result of his leadership and campaign for Gurindji land, Vincent Lingiari has become a national iconic figure representing, more broadly, the struggle of Aboriginal people to have their rights to traditional lands recognised and for those lands to be returned. http://indigenousrights.net.au/person.asp?pID=970
