How is racial discrimination portrayed in rabbit proof fence?

Have you seen the movie? A population not native to the country decided that the capacity of the indigenous populations to raise children, provide safe and secure communities and progress according to the values of the non native population was insufficient. Therefore, the non native population adopted a mandate that they would impose their values on the indigenous population and improve the situation. Children were removed from families, forbidden to speak their language or practice their customs. In the Rabbit Proof Fence children of one family absconded from a school and traveled many miles back to their country to find their mother following the rabbit proof fence through very inhospitable country. They were pursued by men on horseback intent on taking them back.

What is the rabbit proof fence and what did it keep the aborigines from doing?

In 1859, a man named Thomas Austin, a landowner in Winchelsea, Victoria imported 24 wild rabbits from England and released them into the wild for sport hunting. Within a number of years, those 24 rabbits multiplied into millions.Excessive grazing by the rabbit has diminished vegetative cover, allowing wind to erode away top soil. Soil erosion affects re-vegetation and water absorption. The livestock industry in Australia has been widely affected by the rabbit. As food yields decrease, so does the cattle and sheep population. Rabbit proof fencing was tried but failed.But the part about the aborigines is from a movie called the "Rabbit Proof Fence". ~Coursing through an Aboriginal community is a rabbit-proof fence. Built to keep the country's rabbits on one side and its pasture land on the other, it spans the entire length of Australia from north to south. A Mr. Neville is the legal guardian of all Aboriginal people. Convinced that the Aborigines are dying out, he is committed to hastening their disappearance by enforcing a law that forbids children of mixed marriages to marry full-blooded Aborigines. The story is of three young girls who escape from a settlement and set out to make the 1,200-mile trek back home on foot.The events are based on the experiences of Ms. Garimara's mother, Molly (Everlyn Sampi), who is 14 at the time of the movie; her 8-year-old sister Daisy (Tianna Sansbury), and their 10-year-old cousin Gracie (Laura Monaghan). All three are mixed-race children fathered by itinerant white fence workers. The bulk of the movie follows them on a three-month trek through forest, field and desert, during much of which they use the rabbit-proof fence to guide them home.~ Movie review by STEPHEN HOLDEN.

Mavis' role was the woman who met the three girls in the film, that had run away from moore river & she let them stay the night.
