said that the reality of the situation is that the fundamentals of much of the existing indigenous civilisation was systematically ripped away under British Colonial law (Bourke, 1998). Life as aboriginal people knew it was rapidly taken away. Skutnabb & Phillipson, 1995 notes that to deny people their law, languages and the use of their land is a denial of basic human rights. It was enlightening yet very understandable to realise that although the British regarded themselves as settlers the Aboriginal people often regarded them as invaders and the sad thing is, most of the new arrivals to Australia did not see any positive attributes among the aboriginal people and it quickly became a culture among Westerners which is even evident today, that they believe in their own superiority (Bourke, 1998). Westerners declared the aboriginal nations as uncivilised and ultimately the solution induced by the British was ‘reed out colour’ , a policy congruent with a white Australia (McGregor, 1997). This was a terrible example of racism and discrimination which was underlined by Bin-Salik, 1990. He showed that aboriginal people were a nation of philosophers with a well- established set of beliefs. Very little recognition was given to their educational and spiritual life, ability and culture by the Westerners. Bin-Salik, 1990 provided insight that during the first contact between aboriginal people and European settlers, it was recognised that aboriginal people had the same level of intellectual ability; however nothing came of it and the racist assumptions that indigenous Australian were not cognitively capable of achieving intellectual parity with Europeans grew. The term ‘ar ges’ oure , 1998 referred to an era when Australian aboriginal people, survivors of the initial contact with European settlers, were removed and placed in missions and reserves. Those environments restricted and prevented aboriginal people from participating in their culture and imposed impoerished uropean ‘education’ on the people replacing their existing rich intellectual life. Young, 2009 states that d uring the earl ’s and up until the ’s , white Australians enforced the removal of people (mostly children) from their families under the policy of assimilation which has caused countless people to suffer and caused endless social issues among the indigenous people. As with much of early colonisation, the purposes of missions and reserves was not to allow integration into society but rather to teach the indigenous people little more than basic literacy and numerical skills and use them for labour (Bin-Salek,1990). It was a generation that isnow known as the stolen generation. It has been documented that the stolen generation has left a legacy of unresolved grief that has passed through and traumatised generations of ustralia’s indigenous people . Gray and Beresford termed this unresolved grief that passes from one generation to the next as ‘intergenerational trauma’ and it has been found to have caused family violence, alcohol and drug abuse and even suicide. As teachers and humans we must be aware of the concept as Winch’s , 1999 studies show that people who are already traumatised,whether it be indirectly or directly, may have less resilience to stressful events in life such as suicide of family members, separation, divorce, jail, marriage and pregnancy all which induce the
