Survived the past! Survive the future?

This is the story of the native people of Australia.Taken from their families to a life that is foreign from what they have known,and with people that have totally different beliefs to their people.Put in missions and turned into slaves,away from the people and the way of life they love.This is the old lady now and her past self behind.The Dingo Australias native dog is being destroyed due to white settlement.Their home lands being destroyed,by bigger dog boxes,the estates.Bushland flattened to make the deserts of mankind.
