How Superior Were They?

The British were as superior as lions in the jungle.
They yielded their power over the Aboriginals.
Like a boulder about to crush a stone.
The rabbit proof fence stretched out across the land
Representing the superiority of the whites
It rises from the land like a body guard,
Preventing the Aboriginals’ freedom.
The white Australians then took children from the Aboriginal families.
Sending them to reservations, orphanages, and institutions.
Restricting the children from the outside world.
Superiority took over the lives of the Aboriginals,
Leaving a huge scar on them.
~Junn Meng and Danniel


This picture shows how the children were after the Stolen Generation. This is a before and after picture.
