  • SOLONEC Shared Lives on Nigena Country
    Shared lives on Nigena country: A joint Biography of Katie and Frank Rodriguez, 1944-1994. Jacinta Solonec 20131828 M.A. Edith Cowan University, 2003., B.A. Edith Cowan University, 1994 This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities (Discipline – History) 2015 Abstract On the 8th of December 1946 Katie Fraser and Frank Rodriguez married in the Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Derby, Western Australia. They spent the next forty-eight years together, living in the West Kimberley and making a home for themselves on Nigena country. These are Katie’s ancestral homelands, far from Frank’s birthplace in Galicia, Spain. This thesis offers an investigation into the social history of a West Kimberley couple and their family, a couple the likes of whom are rarely represented in the history books, who arguably typify the historic multiculturalism of the Kimberley community. Katie and Frank were seemingly ordinary people, who like many others at the time were socially and politically marginalised due to Katie being Aboriginal and Frank being a migrant from a non-English speaking background. Moreover in many respects their shared life experiences encapsulate the history of the Kimberley, and the experiences of many of its people who have been marginalised from history. Their lives were shaped by their shared faith and Katie’s family connections to the Catholic mission at Beagle Bay, the different governmental policies which sought to assimilate them into an Australian way of life, as well as their experiences working in the pastoral industry.

  • Artstate Day 1 2Nd November 2018
    Artstate Day 1 2nd November 2018 ELIZABETH ROGERS: Good morning everyone and welcome to the first day of this conversation here in Bathurst. I would like to acknowledge we are meeting on Wiradjuri country, and pay my respects to the Elders past, present and emerging, and thank them for the wonderful welcoming ceremony last night. I would also like to acknowledge all the Elders who have travelled from other parts of the state, and all the Aboriginal people who have joined us here today. I would like to acknowledge the Chair of Regional Arts NSW, Stephen Champion; and the Directors of our Board; the chairs and executive directors from the regional arts development organisations that make up our unique regional network, delivering arts and cultural development projects based on the needs of their individual communities. In a world of constant change, that this model, a state and local government partnership, has been stable for nearly 20 years – is a testament to these regional leaders and their boards. In fact, it is exactly 20 years since the centralised Arts Council of NSW was completely reformed to give us the autonomous and independent arts and cultural development bodies we have today. It is a collaborative and collegiate group which reflects the different landscapes in which they work. We could not deliver this event without our principal partner, the NSW Government, with funding through Create NSW and Destination NSW; and I would particularly like to thank Grainne Brunsdon from Create NSW for her support, advice and encouragement during the development of Artstate. Our local government partner, Bathurst Regional Council, and our strategic partner, Charles Sturt University, I thank them all for their support.

  • THE COMING WAR on CHINA a New Film by Emmy and Bafta Award Winning Director John Pilger
    THE COMING WAR ON CHINA A new film by Emmy and Bafta award winning director John Pilger In Cinemas 5th December 2016 Satellite Q&A with John Pilger from Picturehouse Central A nuclear war between the United States and China is not only imaginable but a current ‘contingency’, says the Pentagon. John Pilger’s 60th film and first since 2013’s Utopia is his ​ ​ most urgent work to date and is both a warning and an inspiring story of resistance. The Coming War on China, filmed over two years across five potential flashpoints in Asia and ​ the Pacific, reveals the build-up to war on more than 400 US military bases that encircle China in a ‘perfect noose’. Using rare archive and remarkable interviews with witnesses, Pilger’s film discloses America’s secret history in the region – the destruction wrought by the equivalent of one Hiroshima every day for 12 years, and the top secret ‘Project 4.1’ that made guinea pigs of the population of the Marshall Islands. In key interviews from Pentagon war planners to members of China’s confident new political class - who rarely feature in Western reports, Pilger’s film challenges the notion and propaganda of China as a new ‘enemy’. Pilger says: “The aim of this film is to break a silence. A new cold war is under way along with ​ the drumbeat to war, this time with the real possibility of nuclear weapons. ‘The Coming War’ is also a film about the human spirit and the rise of an extraordinary resistance in faraway places.
