This is strange because at times I swear your using the same book material I am, and then at other times you dont know the answers provided in the above assumption. So yeh, its very amusing - but they are only the notes listed in the end of that part of the chapter. I hope they were helpful in any case.

I actually need a little on this myself.

For the first one though we compared the Navajo native Americans to Indigenous Australians for things such as life expectancy, education rates, jail over-representation etc. then looked at why they were better off.

You should also look at how other countries deal with refugees, something which I unfortunately didn't do. Mentioned Sweden, so I might look that up.
