S.A. then ? :-)
It's an ongoing battle with real grievances behind it all for sure - and people that hunt and kill to survive, even today, don't pull back on the violence when it arises.
It's rare to scratch an old town Australia and not find covered over 'genocide' like past events, and the rights given in 60s and 70s were very much a double edge sword for many, "now you can vote and we see you as people and not 'native animals' anymore - now fuck off and don't get in our eyeline".
The cure, although not simple, is respect and understanding and recognition of that, from both sides - albeit how hard such positions can be to reach.
My first move in country when I'm staying for any time is to see who the families are and to talk to some and to watch and see people.
That tends to minimise any trouble down the road, but there are few easy answers as yet.
