A: the conquest of Australia by the first European colonists B: the conquest of Australia by the first European colonists C: the forced assimilation of aborigines D: the conversion of aborigines by European missionaries

Answer 1

The passage you are referring to likely describes **C: the forced assimilation of aborigines**. The Australian government's apology to the Aboriginal people typically addresses the injustices and policies that led to the marginalization of Indigenous communities, including the practice of forced assimilation where Aboriginal children were removed from their families as part of government policies aimed at integrating them into European society.
