An Australian newspaper is under fire for a cartoon of an Aboriginal father and son.

An Australian newspaper is under fire for its depiction of an Aboriginal father and son. It has been accused of being "ugly ,insulting and embarrassing" to the Aboriginal people, but it has also sparked a debate about how the community are treated in Australia.
