The signatures on the petition were mainly collected at two events that were held in Marrickville during April and May 2018. These events were the Anzac Day Reflection held on 25 April 2018 in Richardson’s Lookout – Marrickville Peace Park and the National Sorry Day Walk along the Cooks River via a number of Indigenous Interpretive Sites on 26 May 2018. The purpose of the petition is to creatively showcase the history and culture of the local Aboriginal community along the Cooks River and to publicly acknowledge the role of Pemulwuy as “father of local Aboriginal resistance”. The action petitioned for was expressed in the following terms: “We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who urge Inner West Council in conjunction with Council’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Reference Group (A&TSIRG) to designate the walk between the Aboriginal Interpretive Sites along the Cooks River parks in Marrickville as the Pemulwuy Trail and produce an information leaflet to explain the sites and the Aboriginal connection to the Cooks River (River of Goolay’yari).” A total of 60 signatures have been collected on the petition attached.

Durithunga – Growing, nurturing, challenging and supporting urban Indigenous leadership in education i Language Weaves As highlighted in the following thesis, there are a number of key words and phrases that are typographically different from the rest of the thesis writing. Shifts in font and style are used to accent Indigenous world view and give clear signification to the higher order thought and conceptual processing of words and their deeper meaning within the context of this thesis (Martin, 2008). For ease of transition into this thesis, I have created the “Language Weaves” list of key words and phrases that flow through the following chapters. The list below has been woven in Migloo alphabetical order. The challenge, as I explore in detail in Chapter 5 of this thesis, is for next generations of Indigenous Australian writers to relay textual information in the languages of our people from our unique tumba tjinas. Dissecting my language usage in this way and creating a Language Weaves list has been very challenging, but is part of sharing the unique messages of this Indigenous Education field research to a broader, non- Indigenous and international audience. The following weaves list consists of words taken directly from the thesis.

  • The Working-Class Experience in Contemporary Australian Poetry
    The Working-Class Experience in Contemporary Australian Poetry A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Sarah Attfield BCA (Hons) University of Technology, Sydney August 2007 i Acknowledgements Before the conventional thanking of individuals who have assisted in the writing of this thesis, I want to acknowledge my class background. Completing a PhD is not the usual path for someone who has grown up in public housing and experienced childhood as a welfare dependent. The majority of my cohort from Chingford Hall Estate did not complete school beyond Year 10. As far as I am aware, I am the only one among my Estate peers to have a degree and definitely the only one to have attempted a PhD. Having a tertiary education has set me apart from my peers in many ways, and I no longer live on the Estate (although my mother and old neighbours are still there). But when I go back to visit, my old friends and neighbours are interested in my education and they congratulate me on my achievements. When I explain that I’m writing about people like them – about stories they can relate to, they are pleased. The fact that I can discuss my research with my family, old school friends and neighbours is really important. If they couldn’t understand my work there would be little reason for me to continue. My life has been shaped by my class. It has affected my education, my opportunities and my outlook on life. I don’t look back at the hardship with a fuzzy sense of nostalgia, and I will be forever angry at the class system that held so many of us back, but I am proud of my working-class family, friends and neighbourhood.

  • Of the Tasmanian Aborigines
    7. NOTES ON THE HUNTING STICKS (LUGHKANA), SPEARS (PERENNA), AND BASKETS (TUGH- BRAN A) OF THE TASMANIAN ABORIGINES. PL IX., X., XL. XII., XIII., XIV.. XV. By Fritz Noetling, M-A., Ph.D., Etc. (Read July 10th. 1911.) INTRODUCTION. In the pajJcrs previously published in the Society's journal I have conclusively proved, and it can now be con- si.Iered as an established fact, that the stone relics of the Aborigines represent implements only, and not weapons. This is a fact of the greatest importance, and its signifi- cance will only be fully realised when we apply it to the study of archaeolithic man in Europe- The Tasmanian Aborigines had made at least one great invention, viz.. they had discovered that a certain kind of rock yielded sharp- edged flakes when broken. (1). They also found that these sharp-edged flakes could be used for most of the re- quirements of their simple life. But here again we come upon one of those curious psychological pi'oblems that are so difiicult to explain. The Aborigines had undoubtedly discovered that these flakes were excellent cutting imple- ments, as thev have generally a fine edge, and often enough terminated in a sharp ])oint To us it seems easy enough to turn the good qualitie.s of the sharp flakes to other uses than merely as tools. The instinct of self-presei-A'ation is paramount in all hviman beings, and. as has often been stated, it is the mother of all those inventions that have changed the life of our prehistoric ancestors into that of modem mankind.

  • 3 Researchers and Coranderrk
    3 Researchers and Coranderrk Coranderrk was an important focus of research for anthropologists, archaeologists, naturalists, historians and others with an interest in Australian Aboriginal people. Lydon (2005: 170) describes researchers treating Coranderrk as ‘a kind of ethno- logical archive’. Cawte (1986: 36) has argued that there was a strand of colonial thought – which may be characterised as imperialist, self-congratulatory, and social Darwinist – that regarded Australia as an ‘evolutionary museum in which the primi- tive and civilised races could be studied side by side – at least while the remnants of the former survived’. This chapter considers contributions from six researchers – E.H. Giglioli, H.N. Moseley, C.J.D. Charnay, Rev. J. Mathew, L.W.G. Büchner, and Professor F.R. von Luschan – and a 1921 comment from a primary school teacher, named J.M. Provan, who was concerned about the impact the proposed closure of Coranderrk would have on the ability to conduct research into Aboriginal people. Ethel Shaw (1949: 29–30) has discussed the interaction of Aboriginal residents and researchers, explaining the need for a nuanced understanding of the research setting: The Aborigine does not tell everything; he has learnt to keep silent on some aspects of his life. There is not a tribe in Australia which does not know about the whites and their ideas on certain subjects. News passes quickly from one tribe to another, and they are quick to mislead the inquirer if it suits their purpose. Mr. Howitt, Mr. Matthews, and others, who made a study of the Aborigines, often visited Coranderrk, and were given much assistance by Mr.
