Australia and New Zealand were no longer under British rule beginning in the early 1900s. Social and political issues for indigenous people, however, have remained.

Aborigines in Australia
Lands were taken away from Australia’s Aborigines by British settlers in the 18th and 19th centuries. Many Aborigines were forced to live on reserves and others were killed in conflicts with British settlers. Through British policies, they were also forced to assimilate {uh-sim-uh-layt} to British culture. For example, an estimated 100,000 Aboriginal children - often referred to as the “Stolen Generation” - were separated from their parents and sent to mission schools and homes.

The 1960s brought about change for the Aborigines {ab-or-ij-uh-neez}. They were given the right to vote in 1962 and were finally included as citizens in the Australian census {sen-sus} in 1967. Through the Aboriginal {ab-or-ij-uh-nul} Land Rights Act (1976), the Aborigines reclaimed land in Northern Territory that was taken from their ancestors. In 2008, the Australian government also issued an apologize
for the historical and widespread
mistreatment of Aboriginal peoples.

Today, unemployment and illiteracy {ill-it-er-uh-see} rates are high in Aborigines communities, and in rural communities, many do not have access to good healthcare and education. Aborigines continue to work towards social and political equality.

Maori in New Zealand
Like the Aborigines of Australia, the indigenous peoples of New Zealand - the Maori {mahw-ree} - were robbed of their lands. In 1840, the Treaty of Waitangi {why-tahn-gee} gave the Maori legal and land rights; however, the terms of the agreement were never met. Today, reclaiming lost ancestral lands is still an important issue for the Maori.

Today, preserving Maori culture, which includes Maori language, ceremonies, and traditional arts, is also important to the Maori peoples. With the help of the New Zealand government, language immersion schools have been created for Maori children where they are taught to speak the Maori language. Since 1987, the Maori language has been one of New Zealand’s official languages.
