RABBIT PROOF FENCE

The Clash Between The Two Cultures

ABORIGINALS:
-Molly especially is shown to be a very strong, proud and resourceful character
-they provide for themselves
-live in the desert not in civilization

EUROPEANS:
-A.O. Neville is immediately shown as a powerful character and one who has a lot of control
-portrayed as civilized
-are in the technological age
-live in cities and towns with cars etc.

COMPARISON:
-Europeans have a higher status than the Aboriginals
-have much control over them
-Aboriginals actually rely on the white race to supply them with things
-Aboriginals have no power to go against the white race
-although they are proud and strong, the Aboriginals are forced to eradicate their culture
