  • Sas Resources Fund History 1996-2016
    SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 5 SAS RESOURCES FUND HISTORY 1996-2016 November 2016 SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 6 FOREWORD If there was one single glimmer of light to emerge from the ashes of the 1996 Blackhawk disaster, it would certainly be the creation of the Special Air Service Resources Fund. While the unit was understandably reeling from its worst ever loss, and rightfully focused on rebuilding the short notice Counter Terrorism capability that Australia relies upon it to provide, a selfless group of individuals coalesced, unprompted, and set about creating this amazing institution. In doing so, they reacted swiftly, decisively and generously; and have continued to ever since. The 20 years since the Blackhawk tragedy represents about a “generation” within the Special Air Service Regiment; the unit’s most senior soldiers today were young troopers or lance corporals back in 1996 when the accident occurred. Sadly, during that generation, almost every single member of the unit has experienced the loss of a friend in training or combat. But on each occasion, in the midst of their grief, our men and women have also seen the Fund immediately step into action. As a result, we have witnessed the children of our fallen mates grow up, being cared for by the Fund. No one can replace a lost father or husband but through its financial support and empathy, the Fund provides a backbone of solace in this darkest of situations. By virtue of this fact, every time our soldiers step forward into the breach, they do so confident in the knowledge that should they fall in the service of this country, the Fund has their back, and will continue to take care of that which is most precious to them.

  • Race, Photographs and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural
    A Forgotten Picture: Race, Photographs and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural This is the Accepted version of the following publication Osmond, Gary and Klugman, Matthew (2019) A Forgotten Picture: Race, Photographs and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural. Journal of Australian Studies, 43 (2). pp. 203-217. ISSN 1444-3058 The publisher’s official version can be found at https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14443058.2019.1581247 Note that access to this version may require subscription. Downloaded from VU Research Repository https://vuir.vu.edu.au/39123/ A Forgotten Picture: Race, Photographs, and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural Visual images have played a key role in the history of Australia’s troubled race relations. As Jane Lydon has detailed, images of Aboriginal Australians and Torres Straight Islanders have been not only a key route by which non-Indigenous Australians have come to believe they know Indigenous Australians, but also a powerful site of intervention, protest and resistance by Indigenous Australians.1 The power of these images as a site of engagement, negotiation and struggle has depended on their circulation and reproduction – images typically need to be seen, often over and over again, in order to have a significant impact. It is a simple point, but one that is often taken for granted in the study of photographs and other visual images. It leads to the question of why certain images have become renowned, celebrated or decried, while others that appear equally (or more) deserving have not. This paper is concerned with one such image – of Australian athlete Cathy Freeman – that seems to have had little impact and was quickly forgotten, despite appearing on the front page of Melbourne’s most-read newspaper, the tabloid Herald Sun, in 1994, a time of intense debate around Australia’s race- relations.

  • Aboriginal Rules: the Black History of Australian Football Abstract
    Original Articles Aboriginal Rules: The Black History of Australian Football Full access ArticleDoiMeta DOI:10.1080/09523367.2015.1124861 Sean Gormana*, Barry Juddb, Keir Reevesc, Gary Osmondd, Matthew Klugmane & Gavan McCarthyf Abstract This paper is interested in the significance of Australian football to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people of Australia. In particular, this paper is interested in the cultural power of football and how it has foregrounded the struggle and highlighted the contribution that Indigenous people have made to the national football code of Australia. This paper also discusses key moments in Indigenous football history in Australia. It questions further that a greater understanding of this contribution needs to be more fully explored from a national perspective in order to appreciate Indigenous peoples’ contribution to the sport not just in elite competitions but also at a community and grass roots level. Introduction What may have begun as a simple forgetting of other possible views turned under habit and over time into something like a cult of forgetfulness practised on a national scale. W.E.H. Stanner 1968.1 Graham ‘Polly’ Farmer is regarded as one of the best exponents of Australian Rules football. This was due to his abilities and innovative play that reshaped the game. Specifically, his agility and his long, quick handballs became great attacking manoeuvres that complemented Geelong’s potent midfield.2 Yet there is a distinct aspect to Farmer’s story that many historians and sports journalists do not know about, have forgotten or simply ignore. That is Farmer may never have had this illustrious career, if not for a vital change in Western Australia’s labour policies in 1952.
