The Rabbit Proof Fence - Blog Post #2

Convincing the "New" Australians to apologize to the aboriginals will take a lot of work. First, the Australians should realize that maybe what they were doing wasn't actually what the aboriginals wanted. They should start to think that maybe the aboriginals want to continue living the life they are already living because they like it. The Australians think that the lifestyle they are living is the best lifestyle. In the movie "The Rabbit Proof Fence" the current Australians were making the children all sleep in one room, and they had a bucket as a toilet, they had to do everything a regular Australian child would do. If only the Australians could see how much the aboriginal children didn't like it, all the Australians could see was children, no emotion. The Australians have not noticed the harm they have been causing to both the aboriginal children and their parents.

  1. I like how you got all of your evidence from the movie, but there are some grammar mistakes that could be attended to but other than that the paragraph looks good :)

  2. This post reflects on a great opinion of your own and has details to support your reasons. Your evidence clearly represents and proves your opinion, but I suggest you can have more evidence of what happened in the film. Adding on, you could have used better word choice that is suitable for convincing someone for an apology. You had a good written response to the question overall, but it would have been more efficient if there was more evidence to support your thoughts.
