Have you seen the movie "Rabbit Proof Fence?"  I highly recommend 
it  -- it's about the Australian policy of removing mixed race 
children from their families which lasted until the 1970s.  In the 
film, these children run away and walk thousands of miles back to 
their homes.  Incredible, moving film.
