They basically have a lot of laws that specifically restrict a lot of the rights that aboriginal people have. Basically stuff that's in the same vein as the Jim Crow laws we had here in the US.

Yep. The conversation about racism never reached critical mass in Australia as in the US, and politicians here would rather pretend everything is fine.

Around a decade ago the government introduced measures to ban indigenous people living in the outback from accessing alcohol and pornography, and all welfare payments were put into a specific card that can only be used for groceries and necessities. And many scummy shops responded by overcharging their times 10x times.
