The Stolen Generation: Who Is Responsible, And Can Past Wrongs Be Made Right' According to Bringing Them Home , between 10-33% of indigenous Australians comprised of the “Stolen Generation”: people who, as children, were for forcibly removed from their families and communities. This report says that all Aboriginal families at the time were affected badly by the government’s behaviour, and that this was because of the law from 1910 that tried to ‘assimilate’ the Aborigines into white Australians culture. Some people have called this “our legacy of unutterable shame” . Manne has argued that the Aborigines suffered very badly and endured a lot of shame and crime because of this . The forced seperation of children from there families was a violation of their basic human rights: no government should have ever been able to do this. Every time this seperation occurred, there must have been somebody there to see it. Maybe a nurse or missionary, to see the children and the parents crying who were upset at being taken away. It is suggested that modern Australia has a difficult time acknowledging who was responsible for what happened because of how atrocious and severe the events were, and because we can still see how it effects the Aborigines now .
