In conclusion the High Court established that native title should be wiped out from pastoral leases. In order to do so the governments referred to the Native Title Amendment Act 1998 (Cth) and the Racial Discrimination Act to determine the outcome. Within the Native Title Amendment Act 1998 there was a 10 point claim which was campaigned against by the National Indigenous Working Groups. As a result to this campaign and support from the broader communities within Australia amendments were made within the Native Title Act to ensure justice and fairness was demonstrated towards Indigenous
Introduction: The treatment of indigenous Australians by the government has been an issue of contention since White Europeans settled in Australia. In 1770, Lieutenant James Cook claimed the east coast of Australia in the name of Great Britain and named it New South Wales. British colonization of Australia began in Sydney in 1788. In 1788 when the First Fleet arrived in Australia, an estimated 300,000 Aboriginals inhabited the country. What they did not take into account was that Indigenous Australians had been living on the country for many, many years before hand and had formed a deep and spiritual connection to the land, the land that the Europeans were clearing.
Introduction I’ve chosen this theme for essay as I wanted to learn more information about historical figure Ernesto “Che” Guevara , the ultimate revolutionary icon and a symbol of rebellion, nonconformity, and social inequality. He always fought so the common man could be equal. He showed this throughout his childhood, his college days, his role in the Cuban Revolution, and his revolutionary work in Africa and South America to his death. This essay includes quotations of Che’s contemporaries and journalists about his personality, as I think that these quotations will help to understand the image of Ernesto Guevara. Additionally, he was a prolific writer and diarist, composing a seminal manual on guerrilla warfare, along with a best-selling memoir about his youthful motorcycle journey across South America.

However, in 1859 Australia was established as a separate squadron under the command of a commodore, marking the first occasion that Royal Navy ships had been permanently stationed in
Even before the start of the twentieth century, there were people who called for Australia to be a republic, a nation without any political ties to the British monarchy. 1996 saw a change in the federal government, with John Howard becoming Prime Minister before Keating's referendum could go to the Australian people. Howard proceeded with the question of a republic by holding a Constitutional Convention in Canberra over two weeks

He was then picked up by a man, taken to a deserted house and repeatedly sodomized .

While living on the streets he was adopted by an American family who supported him, and gave him shelter.
So much so that his parents disabled his car at night and took his shot gun away from him. When he was expelled his college dean urged his parents to have him evaluated for mental illness and they never followed through. Had they have placed a higher priority of understanding why their young son had been behaving so irrationally they would have discovered much earlier that he was suffering from schizophrenia and possibly stopped him from harming
