a) - in the first colonial contact Aboriginal people were defined as the " natives ", which de-humanised them and made them "inferior" to white people, still today Aboriginal people are being treated as being inferior by the majority of the Australian population, based on this myth. 

b) - Aboriginal people receive "free cars", "free houses", "extra money" in their pensions and dole. 

c) - only Aboriginal people have been affected by colonialism, (the majority of white Australians do not realise to what extent they have, and are still being affected by colonialism). 

d) - it's a myth that colonialism is part of the past, it is continuing in the present, and Aboriginal people feel this is demonstrated and perpetrated by Government Policies based on the underlying premise of " assimilation ". 

Myth-making is one of the continuing patterns of colonialism, still present in Australian society today, and in the present myths are still keep being created, e.g."free houses "and " frees cars".

Many of the "myths" about Aboriginal people from the past have become the "stereotypes" that label Aboriginal people today.
