Say sorry to the Aborigines!

After watching the movie "Rabbit-Proof Fence" I realized something. I realized that the Aborigines' situation at the time must of been very sad because all the half-caste children were taken away from their parents and taken to the camps. And this all because of the ethnocentric minds and thoughts of the British-Australian politics. So if you were a British Australian and watched the movie you should apologies to the Aborigines because as you see the movie was full of sorrow and they probably still feel that way about the lost generations.

Molly from Rabbit-Proof Fence

So we've started watching the movie "Rabbit-Proof Fence" and it's mainly about 3 half caste aboriginal girls who are sent to a Gulag but escape shortly after arriving. Molly is the oldest girl of the three. So far we've gotten to a part where they had just escaped but we can already some traits of Molly being the hero. Since she is the oldest one she seems like kind of a leader. She seems to have very good tracking skills as we see in the very beginning of the movie where she catches a huge lizard by following it's trails. Molly is also the one who gets the idea to escape from the Gulag at first place and go back home. At first I thought that was kind of stupid idea and that Molly wan't very smart. However the reason she wanted to escape at right that moment was because she knew that the rain was coming and that it would cover their footsteps from the tracker who would come after them. This is another example of Molly being a good tracker. When the girls get to a river Molly puts down one of the girls bags to trick the tracker and make it look like they were going upstream even though they were actually going downstream. This also shows Molly's good tracking skills. Overall I have a feeling that Molly will be the hero in this movie due to her tracking skills and guide the girls back home where they were heading.
