Education and social integration of Northern Territory Aborigines. Considers the position of the Aboriginal in Australia, particularly in the Northern areas when the great bulk of the native population is located. The average Australian read about his plight in the newspaper and he sees programmes on television, but how is the situation viewed in the Northern Territory? Includes interviews with those involved and scenes of contemporary Aboriginal life.
