the main contributor to misunderstandings between Indigenous Australians and non indigenous people is that the English people did not take the aboriginals seriously, they have not seen any culture like the aboriginals so they thought it was alright to treat them as animals and use them as slaves. The ' white Australia' policy was very rude, Australia was once the aboriginals land and now the English people took this away from them everything they have worked for is now gone.

The main contributor to misunderstandings between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians is when the stolen generation occurred and all the Indigenous peoples' children were stolen and taken to orphanages or put to slavery. Something like this cannot be undone for example if I came and stole anyone of your family members, there could be no forgiveness. :P

The main contributor to misunderstanding between Aboriginal and non indigenous is the British were taking changing their way of life and not giving them the respect they should have given. It was wrong how they clled the land ''Terra Nulius'' and treated them as slaves and animals . They took indigenous kids from familes for a long time.

one  of the main contributors is in the past when the first fleet came.
the common reson was that english people thought they were animals and Indignous people thought they were ghosts.
secondly the english stole all the land and it was no mans land and that created major debuts

# data[].attributes.body
the main reason to why there was a misunderstanding was because when the first fleet came to Australia
and the English came and thought the Indigenous were animals. So they claimed the land theirs even though the land owned the indigenous. After a while the non-indigenous  started to steal the children and disrespected the indigeous.

The main contributor to misunderstanding between Indigenous Australians  and Europeans  is that for a long period of that the indigenous were mistreated  because of their're  way of life.To the Europeans,  Australia was a uninhabited country, them discovering that there where indigenous peoples on this land the indigenous were considered  animals for a long time

When the first settlers came to Australia, they thought the aboriginals were animals and basically ignored them. They claimed the land to themselves and called it (White Australia.) and only white people could come in and they aboriginals said this was unfair,

the main contribute to misunderstanding between the Aboriginal and non Aboriginal peoples was the Europeans coming to Australia and taking over the Indiginous Australians' land, treating them as animals, not giving the human rights and enslaving them.

One of the main contributor to the misunderstanding of the Aboriginals  where seen as animals  they thought  that the english way was the only way someone could life and the aboriginals didn't  want to change there culture so they didn't corporate with the english
there by they thought that the Aboriginals where   just untamed animals and enforced a law stating any care for these "animals" is a heavy fine and jail time.

The main contributor was the European settlers that came to Australia and took over the life that was living on the grounds the Aboriginal and Indigenous were consider to be animal for quit some time they also didn't have a voice and couldn't vote

the main contribute the misunderstanding between the Aboriginal people and non Aboriginal people

The main contributor to misunderstandings between Aboriginal peoples and Europeans was that when the first fleet arrived, Indigenous people were treated as slaves and were classified as "animals" and were not treated as human beings.

The main contributor to the misunderstanding between the indiginous and non indiginous is cultural differences.Each Aboriginal community is different, with different customs and languages, and relationships to each other. Some communities, usually in urban areas and regional centres, are made up of people from different traditional communities. This can cause some tensions, and needs to be considered when working with Aboriginal people. so thats the misunderstanding betwwn non and indiginous people that there cutoms are different to theirs. the stolen generations were also a realy big part of their lives also as them were condierd as animals.

The main contributor was when the European settlers came to Australia, they classified the Indigenous Australians as animals. They where not treated well and some children where apart of the Stolen Generation. It was a terrible time time for all Indigenous Australians and their children.They were not treated fairly and weren't allowed to vote or able to voice their opinion

# data[].attributes.body
in my opinion the main contributor to misunderstanding was when white people started settlement thinking the land was terra nullius (does not belong to anyone). The white Australian policy did not help with this issues because the settles restricted the Aboriginals even further.

The main contributor to misunderstandings between Indigenous Australians and Europeans is that the Europeans had never seen any culture like this before so they treated them like animals then they took their kids away to teach them how to be more like them. Then we have to think about the 'White Australia' policy coming in to play. So that is what i think are the main contributes to misunderstandings between Indigenous Australian and Europeans.

When the English arrived, the Aboriginals were fine to ''share'' with the English not knowing the things they would eventually do. After finding out that the English thought the land belonged to no-one they must have felt left out. Even though the lack of inclusivity maddened the Aboriginals the English did nothing about it. Then they created The White Australia Policy which adds to the question.

when white colonial settlers came to Australia on 13 may 1787 they believed that their way was the best way. they were not happy when they found Aboriginal peoples were doing things differently so they simply treated the Aboriginal people as animals. later, British people (and others) thought of the Aborigines as pests and savages. As apparently their way was best they tried to educate them their way...forcefully. This became know as "the stolen generation'.

Since European settlement, Indigenous Australians have been a racial minority in society and have been the victims of cultural conflict. The British settlers claimed the land for themselves and for their own purposes when they saw that the land was "uninhabited". Meaning the dispossession of many Aboriginal people from their traditional lands. Also, Aborigines believed it was only fair for the Europeans to share their agricultural produce if the Aboriginal people were to share their land and water, causing the British to think this was stealing and therefore punishable.

The main contributor to misunderstandings were that the first fleet was white and spoke english and the Aboriginals were black and spoke their tribal language. The first fleet had never seen people and culture like this before and considered them animals. If the first fleet had seen a tribe like this and new who or what they were this would of turned out differently

The Idea that Indigenous people didn't understand how to be "civilized" but were animals. We confused the lack of technology with lack of sophistication. If we had just treated them as people a lot would have been different like we wouldn't have stolen a generation if we ha believed that the Aboriginal peoples were good to their children and would have taught them common sense.
