Unfortunately, many and varied. To begin with there are MAJOR health and education issues, that are recognised but not addressed. In Central Australia the average mortality rate is 43, a mortality ratethat dates back to 200 years ago. Chronic health problems including; alcohol abuse, drug use, malnutrition, descrimination, police brutality, rape, and assault are regular issues the average Aboriginal population face on a daily basis. Australia is one of the select few countries of having the most unfortunatereputation in the world as have very nearly commited genocide with particular tribes of the Australian Aboriginal population. Our current government the 'Liberal' party's head, Prime Minister John Howard has consistently denied an appeal from the Aboriginal people to recognise the struggles they faced during to and up to the 1970s of something known as 'THE STOLEN GENERATION'. This is where the children of Aboriginals where taken from their parents and forced to intergrate into "WHITE SOCIETY". This created numerous and long term problems for both the children and parents. A recent movie ' Rabbit Proof Fence' outlines some of these issues. Unfortunately the Aboriginal population still struggles with the multitude of mistreatment from their forced, superimoposed society of the Western ( particularly English ) Society.
