From what I saw, alcohol is a huge problem.

It is hard to describe, without being labeled "racist", but there does seem to be a propensity towards alcoholism in the Aboriginal people.

From memory, none of the Aboriginal's who worked in the organisation I was involved in (a private one, not a government one) drank at all. I can remember a few conversations regarding it, and the general opinion, from the team members who were Aboriginal, was that alcohol was one of the biggest problems their people faced. This was their opinion - not mine.

But their opinion probably does not count, as they were trying to make something of their lives.......... That makes them almost as bad as White people....almost.
