Why do special police units have to visit remote communities? Why was Kumanjayi Walker in trouble with the police in the first place?
We believe that the Commonwealth of Australia and the Northern Territory have allowed Aboriginal communities to be festering sores of misery. Here are just some of the sad facts:
- Low literacy rates
- Overcrowding
- High birth rates
- Poor health outcomes
- High crime rates
- High unemployment
- High levels of illicit drug use
- Corruption in local organisations
- Community bullying (community “fat cats” control things)
- High levels of child abuse
- Poor water supply
It all could be from a country with a low Human Development Index!
