What are popular perspectives/stereotypes against and about Aboriginals?

Some I have personally noticed:

- Are primitive and nomadic (no manners whatsoever)
- Drunk/on drugs most of the time (police had to show up multiple times)
- Are violent/hostile (mainly verbally, but can also be physically)
- Do not want to work and are lazy (Centrelink)

Now, it's important to note that these don't apply to all Aborginals, they apply to those I've encountered in my area (Western Sydney).

i thought that title was a joke for sec....
then i realised it was actually the book lmfao.
Yeah, we have an assessment and one of the essays will most likely be about stereotypes/popular perspectives/assumptions - or whatever other synonyms there are - about Aboriginal people as a collective, so I wanted a broad and different range of them.
