摘要
1788年英国殖民者在澳大利亚建立罪犯流放地,从此打破土著在澳大利亚的宁静。为了夺取土地与资源,白人殖民者对土著进行剥夺、屠杀。殖民者带往澳大利亚的疾病与瘟疫(主要是天花和性病)也不断侵袭土著部落。这些导致澳大利亚土著人口锐减、生活方式和社会文化的破坏。白人殖民对澳大利亚土著种族的生存构成严重威胁。
Australia was colonized by Britain in 1788. From then on, white Colonists not only took away the land and resources from Aboriginal Australians, but massacred thousands of them. Besides, the epidemic of smallpox and sexual infections continuously mined the Aboriginal Australians tribes. So, violent conflicts and the spread of infectious diseases resulted in a sharp reduction of Aboriginal Australians population and the great destruction of their tribal life. The above evidence showed white colonists posed a grave threat to Aboriginal Australians＇ existence.
