Racism In Australia

Introduction
The oppression of a group of individuals, can lead to lesser health welfare. Thus, there is a need to disperse inequality, within the confines of Australian society’s perspectives upon Indigenous people and their actions towards them, within the realms of racism and health, solutions to aid their health, and the limitations in achieving a healthy society (Larson, et al., 2007, p. 328). These implications relate to schools and students through the consistent negligence toward the Indigenous population, as well as lacking teacher understanding of Aboriginal student’s circumstance and culture. Therefore, there are lacking initiatives to implement strategies that suggest improvements to health services, education and employment, however

Several measures have degraded the population of Indigenous people and a downtrend in population has occurred, as a result of the constant negligence of the larger-Australian society. Scientifically Aboriginal people were regarded as inferior, in the dominant white society of Australian within the late 19th century to early 20th centuries (Glover, 1982). Racism experienced amongst Indigenous people ranges from 59-79 percent of studies conducted of around 100-300 Indigenous individuals, suggesting a strong trend within racism that the minority groups experience (Forrest, Dunn & Pe-Pua, 2007; Gallaher et al., 2007). These results question the efficiency of society in educating the wide public about issues regarding racism toward Indigenous populations and factors in the consequences of these racist actions. It is evident, that there is a high factor of racism amongst the Indigenous community, provided by the Australian community through a study of externalized racism (Paradies & Cunningham, 2009). These are seen to implicate health discrepancies within the Indigenous groups as access toward health institutions can be obstructed, exposure toward substance abuse, hate-crime such as assault on Indigenous individuals, mental instability and health, substance abuse in regards to escaping the social marginalization (Paradies & Cunningham, 2009).

The inability to change social perspectives upon the Aboriginal people, leads towards a consist downtrend on their health, education, and opportunities which further results in lower health qualities (Larson, et al., 2007, p. 328). Thus, a correlation between racism and health is prevalent due to the fact that individuals are not educated enough to understand the cultural disparities between Australian against Indigenous understanding of health. There is a separation between Indigenous understandings of health, illness and welfare, particularly due to their inherent cultures (King, Smith & Gracey, 2009). Racism is not always prevalent and can be hidden through differing agendas and actions that are not explicit. As a result, it is evident that health institutions such as hospital have power to undermine and limit access to service and life-saving surgeries. Within the article “Institutionalised racism, reason for fewer Indigenous Kidney transplants” (Davidson, 2015), there is an implied racism from health institutions as there is a disparity between access to equal health opportunities such as kidney donations and surgery (Davidson, 2015). It is seen that there is lacking access for Aboriginal people to health services, showing a disregard for their higher kidney failure rates and lower action taken to ensure better healthcare.
