She watches, alert to the breeze and soft movements of leaves. And although she doesn’t think of spirits, she does feel them. In fact, she is at one with them: possessed. She is a wild thing after all – a hunter, a killer, a ferocious lover. Our ancestors lived under that same sky, but they surely dreamed different dreams from us. Who knows what they dreamed?

  • Who's Got It, Who's Lost It, and Who's Behind the Scenes
    Trump v the swamp Mike Baird Ninja Warriors Leaks flood the White House Why I quit politics TV’s hit machine brothers OCTOBER 2017 POWER 2017 Who’s got it, who’s lost it, and who’s behind the scenes 8 LEAH PURCELL Actor, playwright, director Because: She allows white audiences to see from an Aboriginal perspective. Her radical adaptation of Henry Lawson’s The Drover’s Wife broke new ground for Australian theatre. Among its string of awards was the NSW Premier’s Literary Award for best drama, whose judges described it as “a declaration of war on Australia’s wilful historical amnesia”. Purcell, a Goa-Gunggari-Wakka Wakka Murri woman, uses the full arsenal of drama to tell new stories. In 2016 she co-directed Cleverman, which screened on ABC TV and meshed Aboriginal dreamtime stories into contemporary sci-fi genre. She also co-directed The Secret Daughter, which screened on Seven Network last year and has now been signed for a second series. Starring Jessica Mauboy, it marks the first time a commercial network has put an Indigenous Australian as the lead in a drama series. Season one was the second-highest rating drama for the year. What the panel says: She’s an Indigenous woman with a very political view. The Drover’s Wife was an incredible achievement and will make for a brilliant film. She also has two mainstream TV series on air and she’s winning every single award. – Graeme Mason The Drover’s Wife told the story in a completely different way to which it has been told before.

    “WITH PAIN THERE IS HOPE”: REPRESENTATIONS OF WORKING MOTHERS ON ABC’S BROTHERS & SISTERS by MEGAN VOGEL (Under the Direction of Peggy J. Kreshel) ABSTRACT The national conversation about working mothers and their place in society has been long, intense, and fraught with contradiction. These women are caught between the cultural ideal of nurturing domesticity on one hand, and economic reality and personal ambition on the other. Grounded in British cultural studies and feminist theory, this thesis explores this tension by examining the representations of working mothers on ABC’s Brothers & Sisters, a popular television drama. The findings suggest that these representations are messy and at times, contradictory, and that they both challenge and uphold traditional gender roles. The study’s findings are placed within contemporary social and cultural discourses to suggest the ways that the fictional characters are used to humanize the confusing position many women find themselves in today. Limitations and opportunities for future research are also discussed.

  • 2017 Annual Report
    ANNUAL REPORT 2017 Horizons Foundation envisions a world where all people live free from prejudice and discrimination, and where LGBTQ people contribute to and thrive in a vibrant, diverse, giving, and compassionate community. VISION A community foundation rooted in and dedicated to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community, we exist to: • Mobilize and increase resources for the LGBTQ movement and organizations that secure the rights, meet the needs, and celebrate the lives of LGBTQ people • Empower individual donors and promote giving as an integral part of a healthy, compassionate community MISSION • Steward a permanently endowed fund through which donors can make legacy gifts to ensure our community’s capacity to meet the needs of LGBTQ people, now and forever. 2017will not easily be forgotten. Even as the LGBTQ movement notched at least a handful of victories, 2017 also brought a painful and sudden reminder that we cannot take our rights for granted. Our progress remains, in too many ways, fragile. At the same time, 2017 reminded us of the generosity of our Horizons family. Thanks to the support of donors like you, Horizons grew significantly, ending the year with assets nearing $35 million. That success enabled us to award more than $2.5 million in grants to a wide array of nonprofits that advocate for and serve our community day in and day out. Simultaneously, donor commitments to making legacy gifts to the foundation also rose, reaching more than $65 million in future gifts that will benefit LGBTQ people for decades and decades ahead. Perhaps in a different era, these achievements might fill our Annual Report, along with a few profiles about our grantees and the lives they touch.
