Institutionalisation of Aborigines, under the guise of assimilation and protection policies, was only abandoned in.the lg7Os. It is therefore important to understand the implications of these policies for Aborigines and Australian society in general. I investigate the affect of institutionalisation on Aborigines, questioning the assumption tl.at they were passive victims forced onto missions and government stations and kept there as virtual prisoners.

  • Stretch Reconciliation Action Plan
    Reconciliation Action Plan 2018 – 2020 Underwater Garden by Timeisha Simpson Timeisha Simpson is an emerging artist from Port Lincoln who has exhibited both on the West Coast and in Adelaide. She was studying in Year 9 when she created this work as part of Port Lincoln High School’s (PLHS) Aboriginal Arts Program. The PLHS Arts Program is an outlet for young artists to express themselves creatively. Local artist Jenny Silver has been working with the Arts Program for some time and has built strong relationships with all of the participating young artists. Many of the art works produced explore connections with culture, identity, family and place. It provides opportunities for the artists to be part of exhibitions across the state and their success at these exhibitions has created positive discussions with the wider community. An important aspect of the program is the emphasis on enterprise and the creation of individual artist portfolios. Jenny worked with Timeisha to create Underwater Garden, an acrylic painting that celebrates the richness and health of the water around Port Lincoln. Both artists spend a lot of time in the ocean and chose seaweed to represent growth and movement. Timeisha and Jenny developed authentic relationships with the community while on country which was integral in initial ideation for this piece. Timeisha says, ”The painting celebrates all the different bright coloured seaweeds in the ocean, I see these seaweeds when I go diving, snorkelling and fishing at the Port Lincoln National Park with my friends and family. I really enjoy going to Engine Point because that is where we go diving and snorkelling off the rocks, and for fishing we go to Salmon Hole and other cliff areas”.

  • 'There's a Wall There—And That Wall Is Higher from Our Side'
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article ‘There’s a Wall There—And That Wall Is Higher from Our Side’: Drawing on Qualitative Interviews to Improve Indigenous Australians’ Experiences of Dental Health Services Skye Krichauff, Joanne Hedges and Lisa Jamieson * Dental School, University of Adelaide, Adelaide 5005, Australia; skye.krichauff@adelaide.edu.au (S.K.); [email protected] (J.H.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 5 August 2020; Accepted: 3 September 2020; Published: 7 September 2020 Abstract: Indigenous Australians experience high levels of untreated dental disease compared to non-Indigenous Australians. We sought to gain insight into barriers that prevent Indigenous Australians from seeking timely and preventive dental care. A qualitative study design was implemented, using face-to-face interviews conducted December 2019 to February 2020. Participants were 20 Indigenous Australians (10 women and 10 men) representing six South Australian Indigenous groups; Ngarrindjeri, Narungga, Kaurna, Ngadjuri, Wiramu, and Adnyamathanha. Age range was middle-aged to elderly. The setting was participants’ homes or workplaces. The main outcome measures were barriers and enablers to accessing timely and appropriate dental care. The findings were broadly grouped into eight domains: (1) fear of dentists; (2) confusion regarding availability of dental services; (3) difficulties making dental appointments; (4) waiting times; (5) attitudes and empathy of dental health service staff; (6) cultural friendliness of dental health service space; (7) availability of public transport and parking costs; and (8) ease of access to dental clinic. The findings indicate that many of the barriers to Indigenous people accessing timely and appropriate dental care may be easily remedied.

  • National Sorry Day
    COMMENT Issue No.5 May 1998 National Sorry Day Coming to terms with the past and present National Sorry Day is to be held on the 26th May, exactly one year after the tabling in Federal Parliament of Bringing Them Home – the report into the separation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children from their families. Bringing Them Home revealed the extent and devastating effects of the forced removal of Aboriginal children from their families - an official government policy that went on for 150 years into the early 1970s. The report proposed a number of recommendations including the establishment of ‘Sorry Day’. Other recommendations included the need for apologies, reparation, compensation, services for those affected, and action to ensure that current welfare and juvenile justice systems cease replicating the forced removal of Aboriginal children from their families and communities. This publication has been put together by Dulwich Centre Publications for National Sorry Day. It has been created out of our own desire to apologise to those Indigenous Australians whom we have so wronged and our hope that a publication would be helpful in facilitating discussions. We hope this publication can contribute to the movement of everyday non-Indigenous Australians who are seeking ways to come to terms with this country’s history, to heal past wrongs and address present injustices.

  • Stolen Generations
    the Stolen Generations south australian education pack For the pain, suffering and hurt of these Stolen Generations, their descendants and for their families left behind, we say sorry. To the mothers “and the fathers, the brothers and the sisters, for the breaking up of families and communities, we say sorry. And for the indignity and degradation thus inflicted on a proud people and a proud culture, we say sorry. Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, 13 February 2008 ” INTRODUCTION “ We cannot move forward until the legacies of the past are properly dealt with. This means acknowledging the truth of history, providing justice and allowing the process of healing to occur. We are not just talking here of the brutality of a time gone by - though that was certainly a shameful reality. We are talking of the present, of the ways in which the legacy of the past lives on for every single Aboriginal person and their families. It is time for non-Indigenous Australians to turn their reflective gaze inwards. It is time to look at non-Indigenous privilege - and to ask the question: ‘What was the cost of this advantage - and who paid the price?’ As former Governor-General, Sir William Deane, said in 1996: ‘Where there is no room for national pride or national shame about the past, there can be no national soul.’ …Only by understanding the truth of our past can we find a way to go forward. For the past permeates the present. The past shapes the present. The past is not past. …Encouraging reflection on the past is not intended to promote a wallowing in guilt.
