Italian immigrants went to Austalia in the 1950s. There is a one hour screening of 10 short films telling the experience of Italian immigrants who went to Australia in the 50s. The project is called " The Voice of People".
Still very British in its general culture, eating style and xenophobic.
In the 1950s Australia was considered one of the best places in the world to live,and still ranks as the 4th most desirable place today. There were not slums and mostly there was lots of employment for those that wanted it. It was harder for the lower class people.
The Olympic Games were held twice in the 1950s. The first time was in 1952, and the second time was in 1956.
Well they all walked. But 90% of them got ran over by a horse.
Like ******* immigrants!
White, Polite, and happy.. not necessarily that not everyone was happy, but that at that time that is what the entertainment emphasized. Take the famous TV Bewitched, this is a show from the 1950s where during the whole show Sam and Darrin are "happily married" where nothing ever goes wrong.

Many UK emigrants arrived in Australia in the 1950s by cruise ship. The Australian government subsidised the fares. The passengers had to pay 50 pounds. It was also possible to fly from the UK to Australia in the 1950s, although not non-stop. In later years, UK emigrants arrived by plane too.
they looked dull and boring
big outgoing clothes
Assimilation occurred in Australia toward the Aborigine people in the 1950s. The government wanted the Aborigines as well as other foreigners to become more British, and they were forced off of their land to live among others.
