- Summary
- Indigenous Australians have since colonisation been relegated to the margins of society, only to emerge when their art is used in a tokenistic manner to promote the cultural heritage of the nation. Reconciliation is also at the heart of the olympic movement and it is a significant educational step in the process of Australia's reconciliation with its indigenous people.
