Yes, Sydney here, I've had a few good aboriginal friends in my suburb over the years, who are homeless most of the time. Long story short: It's such a different world. How they survive I have no idea. One is alcoholic, and often talks about wanting to go back to jail - at least there's food, shelter and a bed there. I can't imagine being forcibly deprived of my culture, family, language, land - like many/most of their families, then treated as failed humans. A neverending nightmare. One of them is always introducing the (mostly white) locals to each other in the street, (she knows everyone) and we joke she's doing Aboriginal reconciliation... For a while I was always poor, and she noticed and started giving me food or cigarettes every time she saw me.
