6. Research In America, over 40% of people surveyed saw African American education, income, life expectancy and prison levels as a major problem.

7. Racism In Leadership Australia has never has an indigenous Prime Minister. It took until 2008 for the USA to have their first African American president- Barak Obama

8. Solution More education and opportunities for indigenous people to be members of their government. This would mean providing the facilities in remote areas and the money so more indigenous people can learn politics. This would mean better welfare for Indigenous people if more are in governments.

9. Within Sport Sporting people are great role models for all generations. The way they behave is in the media. Racism- rather than being a problem within sport, is more a way that awareness can be provided to the wider community.

10. Solutions Sporting events highlighting the importance of equality Advertising- Sponsors wanting to stop discrimination or ads during sporting games Player involvement in anti- discrimination projects

12. Solutions Advertising- TV, Sport Banners, radio Education- Some people do not recognise racism and don’t know how to report it Special Events- Raise Awareness i.e. Holding Hands Largest loop of people holding hands
