Abstract:Aboriginal women are being disproportionately jailed due to an "unjust" law, campaigners say.
A fundraising campaign in Australia has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to stop Aboriginal women from being imprisoned due to unpaid fines.
Campaigners say the “unjust” law in Western Australia is having a crippling impact on families living in poverty. It affects a hugely disproportionate number of indigenous Australians.
The BBC met some women in Perth who have been jailed or fear imprisonment.
