  • SEVEN WOMEN of the 1967 REFERENDUM Project For
    SEVEN WOMEN OF THE 1967 REFERENDUM Project for Reconciliation Australia 2007 Dr Lenore Coltheart There are many stories worth repeating about the road to the Referendum that removed a handful of words from Australia’s Constitution in 1967. Here are the stories of seven women that tell how that road was made. INTRODUCING: SHIRLEY ANDREWS FAITH BANDLER MARY BENNETT ADA BROMHAM PEARL GIBBS OODGEROO NOONUCCAL JESSIE STREET Their stories reveal the prominence of Indigenous and non-Indigenous women around Australia in a campaign that started in kitchens and local community halls and stretched around the world. These are not stories of heroines - alongside each of those seven women were many other men and women just as closely involved. And all of those depended on hundreds of campaigners, who relied on thousands of supporters. In all, 80 000 people signed the petition that required Parliament to hold the Referendum. And on 27 May 1967, 5 183 113 Australians – 90.77% of the voters – made this the most successful Referendum in Australia’s history. These seven women would be the first to point out that it was not outstanding individuals, but everyday people working together that achieved this step to a more just Australia. Let them tell us how that happened – how they got involved, what they did, whether their hopes were realised – and why this is so important for us to know. 2 SHIRLEY ANDREWS 6 November 1915 - 15 September 2001 A dancer in the original Borovansky Ballet, a musician whose passion promoted an Australian folk music tradition, a campaigner for Aboriginal rights, and a biochemist - Shirley Andrews was a remarkable woman.

  • History on a Bus
    History on a Bus USING SOCIODRAMA TO ADDRESS RACISM AND RECONCILIATION HELEN KEARINS ABSTRACT In Sydney’s Redfern Park on the 10th of December 1992, the launch of the International Year of Indigenous People, the then Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating delivered a ground breaking speech that gave great hope to people working for reconciliation with Aboriginal Australians. One of those inspired to continue this work, Helen Kearins developed a workshop that assists participants to own racism and move beyond it towards genuine reconciliation with Aboriginal people. In this article, adapted from her 2011 AANZPA Accreditation thesis, she demonstrates the efficacy of sociodrama in this work. KEY WORDS Aboriginal Australians, racism, reconciliation, sociodrama, warm up, White Australians Setting the Scene On my way to or from work in Sydney, I often drive past Redfern Park. Many Australians associate the suburb of Redfern with a stereotype of Aboriginal poverty and dysfunction. Apart from the fact that the stereotype is grossly inaccurate, I have a very different association with Redfern Park. It was here on the 10th December 1992 that Prime Minister Paul Keating gave a speech, often referred to now as the Redfern Park Speech, to launch the 1993 International Year of the World’s Indigenous People. I was there. The speech was significant because it was the first time that an Australian prime minister had acknowledged that, “...the problem starts with us non-Aboriginal Australians”. He went on to say, “It begins I think with an act of recognition” and to name the elements in need of recognition. He emphasised the opportunity provided by this international year to address the injustices suffered by indigenous Australians and to continue working towards reconciliation.

  • Zfa | ASJ 26 2012
    Zeitschrift für Australienstudien / Australian Studies Journal ZfA 26/2012 Seite | 5 From the editors of the issue he editors invite readers to a new and exciting issue of the TZeitschrift für Australienstudien: Australian Studies are becoming increasingly transnational not merely in relation to the background of its scholars but also in terms of academic themes. Like other settler societies, Australia has never been an isolated island. Rather, it has been shaped by diversity and global discourses. This diversity has been of geopolitical, cultural as much as literary influence. Despite this highly heterogeneous background, Australian Studies have nonetheless often been practised within national frameworks. Comparisons, let alone transnational approaches, have been relatively rare - at least from the perspective of systematic research. Today, Australian Studies scholars are experiencing an innovative shift in their various fields of research: translation studies, comparative historical and literary studies and transnational Indigenous Studies are starting to appear, complementing established research. This volume of the Zeitschrift für Australienstudien clearly reflects this new and intellectually highly promising change. Adi Wimmer has transnational structures of analysis in mind as he pursues a comparative approach in his biographically orientated article on Elizabeth Jolley. In his essay “’Don’t Forget About Electra!’ Elizabeth Jolley’s Life and its Reflection in her Works” Wimmer retraces parts of Jolley’s family history and also elaborates on the impact this biographical research exerts on the understanding of Jolly’s writings. Aside from this innovative approach to literary studies, this article is of great transnational importance. Elizabeth Jolly was born in Austria: her writing reflected Australian contexts as much as Central European discourses.

  • Day Break Teachers Notes
    DAY BREAK TEACHERS NOTES Written by Amy McQuire Illustrated by Matt Chun Published in January 2021 by Little Hare, an imprint of Hardie Grant Children’s Publishing SYNOPSIS In this moving picture book a young Indigenous girl describes her family’s journey back to Country, on Australia Day. Theirs is not a day for picnics and celebration. It is a day for remembering and for visiting Country. In both text and image, readers observe this family sharing stories and drawing strength from each other. This story interrogates the various narratives about ‘Australia Day’ and presents the Indigenous view of this national day of celebration, which in their history represents not a celebration, but a day of mourning. Nevertheless, this is not a story which encourages sadness. It is a book which celebrates Indigenous survival and resistance. It honours the past, while looking forward to a brighter future. This is a quietly confronting, honest and important story. It is designed to engage young readers in a crucial conversation about the true history of our country. It will encourage them to acknowledge the traditional owners of this land and to begin to engage in a meaningful reconciliation process with them. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Amy McQuire is a Darumbal and South Sea Islander woman from Rockhampton in Central Queensland. Amy is a freelance writer and journalist, and is currently completing a PhD at the University of Queensland into media representations of violence against Aboriginal women. Amy began her career straight out of high school, completing a cadetship at the National Indigenous Times (NIT) newspaper.

  • A Systemic Linguistic Analysis of Two Prime Ministerial Speeches
    A Systemic Linguistic Analysis of Two Prime Ministerial Speeches Paul Dickinson Assignment submitted for Master of Arts in Applied Linguistics March 2009 Functional Grammar FG/09/01 Apply the principles of systemic linguistic analysis explored in the course to a comparison of the style and communicative functionality of two short texts or text extracts of your own choice. The texts should have a similar subject matter, be drawn from a similar institutional or discourse domain (science, economics, health care provision, tourism, politics, the arts etc) or have some other obvious point of similarity. They need, however, to differ significantly in some aspect of their style, structure, approach, tone. You should indicate how the texts are similar and how they are different in terms of their general stylistic properties and their communicative functionality. Your claims should be backed up by means of an analysis of the types of lexical and grammatical features explored in the course. That is to say, you should consider whether the texts are similar or different in terms of the types of textual, interpersonal and experiential (ideational) meanings explored in the materials.
