Aboriginal Protection

Act
Why did they introduce the Aboriginal
Protection Act
The government introduced the Aboriginal
Protection Act because the Aboriginal population
was dying slowly from the British people who
brought t disease, violence and dispossession.
They also did not have access to needs such as
medical care for they were considered animals
and not people. The government decided that the
Aboriginals needed to be recognised more as the
nation's first people and not animals,
Why where the aboriginal people
getting killed?
The aboriginal people where targeted
because when the british people
arrived in australia, they wanted to
take the aboriginal peoples land so
they pushed them from there homes
and then they tried to kill their race
out by taking their children and
punishing them for no reason.

Did the aboriginal people really

need protecting?
The aboriginal people needed protection because the British people were killing them and
they were dying from diseases and dispossession that the British people brought among
them. They also did not have access to basic needs such as medical care and human rights.
Aboriginals also needed protection because they were considered animals and not treated
the same as everyone else. The Aboriginal population was almost near extinction before
the Aboriginal Protection Act was introduced

How did the Protection Act

protect them?
The Aboriginal Protection Act
protected the Aboriginals by giving
them basic rights and finally
recognising them as First Nations
people and the original owners of the
land The Protection Act says that the
Aboriginals have to be treated equally
as the British people are and they
weren't to get hurt anymore.
