Sports


The participation of the aborigines in the sport decreases till the 19th century. The sportive activities began in the English Cricket and continue in the athletics and in the Australian football. Single sportsmen reached to national popularity and could transport emancipatory contents.
Worldwide attention for the problems of the aborigines achieved in 2000 Cathy Freeman with the profit of the gold medal in the metre run 400 of the women in the Olympic games in Sydney, in particular because she showed not only the Australian flag, but also the flag of the aborigines in the stadium, although, actually, only showing is permitted by national flags.
