Teenminne, Waukeri and James Unaipon at Point Mcleay Mission chapter 7 Who Can be an Evangelist? Teenminne, Waukeri and James Unaipon at Point McLeay Mission In the purely religious sense anyone might function as an evangelist, spreading spiritual knowledge and changing hearts and minds. Evidence abounds to sug­ gest that women were central to historical processes of conversion. However, because ecclesiastical authority was very rarely vested in women in Protestant missions we know much less about them. This chapter considers gender along­ side age, status and indigenous cultural norms in order to see how certain individuals manage to establish prestige in both indigenous and mission spheres which enabled them to work as evangelists. The Ngarrindjeri woman, Teenminne, who lived at Point McLeay mission in southern South Australia, was singled out by missionary George Taplin as one likely to play a leading role in the burgeoning Christian community. However, the trajectory of her life took a different course from two men at Point McLeay – James Unaipon who distin­ guished himself as an evangelist; and Waukeri who, before his early death, seemed to be on the path to becoming an evangelist. As no direct accounts in their own words survive, we rely on Taplin for information about their Christian beliefs and behaviour and their desire to promulgate Christianity to others. Inevitably this presents a male, missionary perspective on gender relations. James Unaipon was born about 1835 (the year before the British colony of South Australia was established) north of Point McLeay on the Murray River. He grew up in close contact with colonists in the township of Wellington.1 He was converted to Christianity by James Reid of the Scottish Free Church and accom­ panied the missionary on evangelical journeys along the river.2 After Reid drowned in 1863 while crossing Lake Albert in a storm, Unaipon moved to Point McLeay. He married a local woman, Nymbulda, in 1866 with whom he had nine children, including David, whose ethnographic studies feature in Chapter 11. Less is known about Teenminne and Waukeri. Teenminne was a young mar­ ried mother when Taplin arrived at Point McLeay in 1859, which probably means she was born in the early 1840s. She had married a man of high standing 1 Philip Jones, ‘James Unaipon’ Australian Dictionary of Biography National Centre of Bio­ graphy, Australian National University, http://adb.edu.au/biography/unaipon­james­13227/ text7247, accessed 4 July 2013. 2 South Australian Register 26 Aug. 1863, p. 6; Jones, ‘James Unaipon.’ © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, ���� | doi �0.��63/9789004�99344_0�0 <UN> 118 chapter 7 among her clan referred to by Taplin as Old Pelican.3 She bore several more children in the next ten years, most of whom seemed to have died in early childhood. She met her own untimely death on 21 September 1869.4 Waukeri had gone through customary initiation rituals by the time Taplin arrived at Point McLeay in 1859. He died in 1864.5 Understanding the importance of these three individuals in the fledgling Christian community requires some knowl­ edge of Taplin’s mission and its origins. In 1859 the Aborigines’ Friends’ Association, a non­denominational body in Adelaide, South Australia, installed Congregationalist George Taplin as super­ intendent of Point McLeay mission on Lake Alexandrina on the lower reaches of the Murray River. It stood on the lands of the Ngarrindjeri whose name for this ancient camping site was Raukkan. In the ten years that had elapsed since his emigration to South Australia at the age of eighteen Taplin had worked as a teacher and undertaken studies for the ministry. In 1853 he married Martha Burnell who entered enthusiastically into his work at Point McLeay.6 Ordained a minister in 1868, he died at his mission in 1879. The Ngarrindjeri comprised both a political/cultural entity as well as a lan­ guage group composed of several lakinyeri subgroups or clans. They occupied lands along the southern coast of South Australia reaching inland along the lower reaches of the Murray River. Unlike the majority of Aboriginal commu­ nities in Australia, the Ngarrindjeri had a governing body, the tendi, for each lakinyeri which offered both political and legal leadership. Its formal member­ ship included men of high standing but no women. Taplin witnessed at least one meeting of a tendi but colonial interference soon undermined their authority.7 The advent of colonial rule was just one of a number of disruptive 3 Rev.

    Diane Bell, the Ngarrindjeri and the Hindmarsh Island Affair: ‘Value-free’ ethnography Richard Kimber NgaRRiNDJeRi WURRUWARRIN: a world that is, was, and will be (1998). By Diane Bell, M elbourne 1998. Pp. 688.$29.95. It was my pleasure to be present at the launch of NgaRRiNDjeRi WURRUWARRIN in Alice Springs in 1998. Professor Diane Bell and I had had intermittent friendly associa­ tions almost from the commencement of her fieldwork in central Australia over two decades ago. By sheer chance, at the very moment she recognised me in a local coffee shop and reintroduced herself, I was recommending a PhD student to read her Daugh­ ters of the Dreaming (1993 edition). She kindly invited us to what transpired to be a very successful launch. This friendly association of over twenty years, together with my respect for her hard years of work in central Australia, have made it difficult to review the book in question. Some friends might feel that they are obliged to write a glowing tribute, others that they should make an honest attempt to be objective, and to make constructive criticism. I have taken the latter stance, and trust that an honest hard- edged appraisal is preferable to sycophantic approval. The initial appearance and feel of the book is appealing. Even though I found the mix of upper and lower case in the title word NgaRRiNDjeRi irritating, and wondered at the choice of this spelling instead of Narrinyeri, anyone with even the vaguest under­ standing of Ngarrindjeri country would appreciate Muriel Van Der Byl's cover illustra­ tion of a pelican against the background of sun, sand-dunes and water.

  • Indigenous Relationality: Women, Kinship and the Law
    Article Indigenous Relationality: Women, Kinship and the Law Patricia Dudgeon 1,* and Abigail Bray 2 1 School of Indigenous Studies, The University of Western Australia, Crawley WA 6009, Australia 2 Independent Researcher, London N7 8AN, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-86-488-3428 Received: 19 February 2019; Accepted: 23 April 2019; Published: 26 April 2019 Abstract: Strong female governance has always been central to one of the world’s oldest existing culturally diverse, harmonious, sustainable, and democratic societies. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women’s governance of a country twice the size of Europe is based on complex laws which regulate relationships to country, family, community, culture and spirituality. These laws are passed down through generations and describe kinship systems which encompass sophisticated relations to the more-than-human. This article explores Indigenous kinship as an expression of re- lationality, culturally specific and complex Indigenous knowledge systems which are founded on a connection to the land. Although Indigenous Australian women’s kinships have been disrupted through dispossession from the lands they belong to, the forced removal of their children across generations, and the destruction of their culture, community and kinship networks, the survival of Indigenous women’s knowledge systems have supported the restoration of Indigenous relational- ity. The strengthening of Indigenous women’s kinship is explored as a source of social and emo-

  • Thursday 20 July at 12.30Pm, Emerita Professor Diane Bell Will Speak on ‘Post-Factual Scholarship: Lessons on Lying, Hindmarsh Island, and “Secret Women’S Business”’
    Thursday 20 July at 12.30pm, Emerita Professor Diane Bell will speak on ‘Post-factual scholarship: Lessons on lying, Hindmarsh Island, and “secret women’s business”’. This will be held in the Conference Room of the NLA. In these so-called post-factual times, whither scholarship? By way of exploring the proposition that ‘facts matter’ and that our responsibility as scholars is to speak out, I trace the narrative of accusations that Ngarrindjeri women deliberately fabricated a sacred story, one restricted to certain women, to thwart development on Hindmarsh Island in South Australia. That was 1995. The women have been vindicated, the state has apologised, the site is registered and Ngarrindjeri Native Title is set to be handed over in September. It has taken decades, dedication, and determination of many to get this far but the damage that has flowed from the liar label is immense. The legacy lingers for Ngarrindjeri and expert advocates of an unpalatable truth: women have knowledge that is restricted by considerations of age, kinship, ceremony and aptitude. The label ‘secret women’s business’ has a genealogy and I’ll offer comparative material from my work in the central desert in the 1970s and 80s. It’s a long game. The stakes are high. But I know scholarship can and is shifting the narrative. Emerita Professor Bell is a feminist anthropologist who has worked with the Ngarrindjeri for over two decades. In the foreword to the second edition of her award-winning monograph, Ngarrindjeri Wurruwarrin: A world that is, was, and will be, she traces the consolidation of the Ngarrindjeri nation in the post-Hindmarsh era.

On every step of this journey, I have had support from sources too numerous to name, which I seek to acknowledge here, even though I will inevitably fail to list them all. My dissertation research stands on the shoulders of intellectual giants whose work has laid the foundations upon which I build. I am grateful to scholars of transnational families, including Rhacel Salazar Parreñas, Dierdre McKay, Laura Merla, Loretta Baldassar, and many others. In particular, I owe a special debt to Leisy Ábrego’s powerful sociological investigation of the experiences of children and parents in cross-border Salvadoran families. Numerous scholars of language and social life have influenced my thinking as well, but I have been especially inspired by the work of Norma Mendoza Denton, whose skillful weaving together of linguistic analyses and ethnographic insights I have tried to echo here.

  • ANTHROPOLOGY of GENDER (5 Credits) 12-Week Module (October-December) Dr
    SF 2013-14 Department of Sociology Senior Freshman GENDER, CULTURE AND SOCIETY (10 credits) ANTHROPOLOGY OF GENDER (5 credits) 12-week module (October-December) Dr. Barbara Bradby INTRODUCTION This course aims to look at the meaning of gender in different cultures. It therefore covers work both on the material division of labour, power and property between the sexes, and on how gender is understood as a symbolic system. A central question posed by feminist anthropologists has been whether patriarchy, or the subordination of women, is a universal feature of social organisation. The debates over this question have gone on to raise issues of structure and agency which will be familiar from sociological debates. We pursue these questions through work on relations between men and women in diverse societies – the Australian Aborigines, the Trobriand Islanders, contemporary Morocco, the Andean peoples of Peru and Bolivia, as well as other case-studies. The course is not one where for ‘gender’ one can read ‘women’, but also looks critically at male roles across different cultures. The question arises, for instance, of whether male violence against women in non-western cultures can or should be read in the same way as such violence in our own society. Such debates have given rise to the recent concern with gender as one of a multiplicity of differences that upset the centrality of cultural difference in traditional anthropology. Anthropologists have at the same time begun to question their own methods of researching and writing as never before, to see themselves as ‘authors’ rather than ‘scientists’, and their works as texts growing out of the relationship between coloniser and colonised.

    BOOK REVIEWS Daughters of the Dreaming. By Diane Bell. Allen & Unwin, Sydney, 1993. First published 1983. Second edition with new foreword and epilogue. Pp. 342. Black and white illustrations, bibliography, index. $1.95 p.b. In this, the second edition of a monograph first published in 1983, the original text is unaltered except for minor corrections, but Diane Bell has added a short foreword and a 27- page epilogue. I reviewed the original text in Aboriginal History (vol. 8) and stand by what I wrote then:- 'Her book ... represents a major contribution to our knowledge of past and present Aboriginal societies and demonstrates the significance of women in every aspect of community existence.' Since its publication a number of women have engaged in research into various aspects of the lives of Aboriginal women and have written MA or PhD theses of considerable importance. They have produced articles in books and journals, but no monographs. An outstanding collection about South Australian Aboriginal women edited by Peggy Brock was published in 1989 under the title Women, rites and sites: Aboriginal women's cultural knowledge. In her foreword to the new edition Bell explains that she had decided not to alter the original text (except for minor corrections) because this had historical relevance in reflecting some of the values of the early 1980s both in anthropology and in her own development. In her epilogue she describes some of the changes in anthropological theory particularly where the study of women's society is concerned. Much of the epilogue is a discussion of the development during the last ten years of feminist anthropological theory, a discussion which would be helpful for any woman embarking on fieldwork today.

It is primarily visual and to be understood, literally and figuratively, as a tableau in the dual French meaning of the term, i.e. as both table and picture. The graphic aspect of this non-linear vis-à-vis format was deemed the most constructive manner to achieve the article’s aim of preserving the opacity of Ngarrindjeri discourses, while shedding new light on the interdependency between the “hyphenated” histories (Johnson 2014: 318), both current and historical, of governmental and Ngarrindjeri ontologies and practices in relation to waters.
