Racism affects everybody Essay

This is shown in the depiction Australia, how e veryone can be modify by racism. Many contrasting ways of racism towards great deal in the movie Australia. A few of the main characters that are affected in the movie is Nullah, The Drover, Lady Ashley. The people that are universe most affected in the movie would have to be the natal, thats because the time the movie was set in, was when the snow-white australia policy was happening, so slightly much every Australian was being racist towards indigene people. Racism is problem that everybody is affected in the world today.In the movie Australia, all the aboriginal people was being well behaved, did everything they was told and followed the rules. Even past people was still be racist towards them. Some of the ways racism was shown in the movie was how the aboriginals wasnt allowed in the pubs, also Neil Fletcher was using Daisy for sex and didnt show any respect and also put her and his son up. So pretty much all the Austral ians in this time period was against all indigenous people and all japanese because at the time australia was at war with japan and japan terminate up bombing darwin.Nullah in the movie was a half cast, so he wasnt in full aboriginal or australian, he felt left out because he wasnt black or white, he was only a creamy colour. He was the likes of this because of Neil Fletcher using his m early(a) for sex. Nullah and his mother wasnt treated with any respect at all and both of them was also beat up, it was because Neil fletcher played a big vocalism in being racist towards Indigenous people. A good example of racism towards Nullah is when he is about(predicate) to get on the ship to the mission and a young australian boy was yelling to him and saying Creamy and kept saying that to Nullah.Near the end of the movie Nullah wants to go walk about with his Grandfather. If you go on this walk about It means you become a human, its part of the aboriginal tradition, even though Nullah isnt a full blooded aboriginal, he still wants to admit live by his aboriginal culture and follow the aboriginal tradition and become a man through the true aboriginal way. The reason all this racism was happening towards the aboriginal people was because of the government. They had make a policy in the australia called the white australia policy, this policy wanted australia to only have fully white blooded australians in australia only.The half cast kids like Nullah was sent to a mission to learn about the christianity and how australians live, the other reason they were sent there is because australian people wasnt proud of having sex with aboriginal women and then they didnt want half cast kids in the public because it would remind them of what they did with those aboriginal women and they didnt want that. So the government made missions where, the half cast kids were taken from their families by the police and wasnt allowed to see their families again. The kids that were taken when they were are now called the stolen generation.The two people in the movie that werent being racist towards aboriginal people was The Drover and Lady Ashley, this was because they both had a connection with the aboriginal people in the movie, The Drovers coadjutor in the movie was an aboriginal and The Drover felt like he was an aboriginal and thought that people treated him like one. He also sticked up for his partner at the pub, this shows how close Drover was to his partner. Lady was close to aboriginal people because of Nullahs mother decease and she took up mothering for Nullah, this made a strong connection between them.When Neil Fletcher was beating up Nullah Lady Ashley stepped in and protected Nullah. In conclusion, It doesnt matter if someone is being racist towards an individual, it will affect other people to. Even all the years ago, when the white australia policy was taking place, the racism towards the aboriginals and the stolen generation, It is still affecti ng most of Australia today and a lot of people are sorry to the stolen generation because what the government did was very wrong and it didnt take not long to see what they done. Racism still happens today over and it does affect everyone.
