Näku Dhäruk The Bark Petitions and Enlightened Aboriginal Futures (2024 Launches at the Library)


Listen Later

For years books exploring Australian Indigenous history have been reframing the story, addressing the wrongs of previous historiography. In this event we hear about two works - Enlightened Aboriginal Futures by Barry Judd and Katherine Elllinghaus, and Näku Dhäruk The Bark Petitions by Clare Wright. Both of these books explore issues of settler-colonialism, sovereignty, consultation and cross-cultural interaction, with host Julie Andrews. Introduced by Nick Bisley.

Recorded on 22nd October, 2024.
