Volume 2 Foreword The NSW Department of Education and Communities is committed to increased knowledge and understanding of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, histories and communities by all students and teachers. All students are entitled to quality, culturally appropriate resources. The Aboriginal education K–12 resource guide: Volume 2 supports teachers, Aboriginal education workers and school communities by providing reviews to assist schools, in partnership with their communities, to select appropriate resources which support ongoing learning about cultural understandings in Aboriginal education across the curriculum. The 500 reviews in this second volume build on the 349 reviews published in the first volume of the Aboriginal education K–12: resource guide. It also updates information about Department of Education and Communities, and Board of Studies NSW resources abstracted in the earlier volume. This will assist schools and communities to be aware of the range of resources available to support Aboriginal education K-12. In developing Volume 2 of the Aboriginal education K-12 resource guide, School Libraries project team members in NSW Curriculum and Learning Innovation Centre worked with colleagues in Aboriginal Education and Training Directorate, and consulted with the NSW Aboriginal Education Consultative Group Incorporated. I commend the Aboriginal education K–12 resource guide: Volume 2 to you. It will provide positive support for student learning by supporting teachers and school communities to select culturally appropriate resources for Aboriginal studies across all learning areas. Raju Varanasi Director NSW Curriculum and Learning Innovation Centre 4 © State of New South Wales through the NSW Department of Education and Communities, 2012 Aboriginal Education K–12 Resource guide. Volume 2 Using this resource In keeping with the Aboriginal Education and Training policy, increasing understandings of the cultures, histories and experiences of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, Australia’s First Peoples, is everybody’s business. This Aboriginal education K–12 resource guide: Volume 2 provides reviews to assist schools, in partnership with their communities, to select appropriate resources which support Aboriginal education across the curriculum. Consultation with local Aboriginal communities is important to ensure relevance of resources, as some materials may be sensitive or unacceptable to particular Aboriginal groups. Evaluating resources A critical approach to the use of resources is important. When considering the appropriateness of a resource for Aboriginal education, consult with the local Aboriginal community, and think about key criteria such as those on pages 15 to 17 of the earlier Aboriginal education K–12: resource guide. These pages offer questions which can be used for discussion with teachers and students. Students and teachers can also use online tools, such as those available in Links4Learning. To access Links4Learning 24/7, NSW Department teachers and students go to their portal and select library. Selected links to support evaluating resources are included in the Information skills section. Additional resources Readers may also wish to refer to the 349 reviews published in the first volume of the Aboriginal education K–12: resource guide. This second volume updates information about Department of Education and Communities and Board of Studies NSW resources available to support Aboriginal education K-12.

  • Submission to the Enquiry of the House Of
    SUBMISSION TO THE INQUIRY OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES STANDING COMMITTEE ON COMMUNICATIONS INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND THE ARTS INTO COMMUNITY BROADCASTING Submission 80 FROM THE NATIONAL INDIGENOUS TELEVISION (NITV) COMMITTEE Executive Summary In September 2005 the Australian Government announced that from 1 July 2006 it will fund the establishment of an Indigenous television service. The National Indigenous Television (NITV) Committee1 is charged with the implementation of the new service; provisionally named National Indigenous Television (NITV). The NITV Committee proposes that NITV, as a fully fledged, government licenced broadcast service, should be provided with the same digital spectrum access as the other mainstream broadcasters. Such an allocation would provide an opportunity for NITV to act as a “channel multiplexer” to provide digital carriage of local community broadcasters. This would allow the community services to continue to be provided with spectrum “free of charge”, without the need for them to provide their own expensive technical infrastructure for digital services. 1 See Appendix 1 for NITV Committee members. The NITV Committee is a voluntary, industry representative group which was formed by the Australian Indigenous Communications Association (AICA) to develop an effective strategy for the establishment of a national Indigenous television service. The group comprises representatives from AICA, Indigenous Remote Communications Association Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders Corporation (IRCA), Indigenous Screen Australia (ISA), IMPARJA Television and those with specific contributing industry expertise. Submission The House of Representatives Standing Committee on Communications Information Technology and The Arts is conducting an enquiry into community broadcasting and seeks input from involved organisations on:- • The scope and role of community broadcasting • Content and programming requirements • Technological opportunities • Opportunities and threats to achieving a diverse and robust network of community broadcasters 1.

  • Ruby Langford Ginibi: Bundjalung Historian, Writer and Educator
    Ruby Langford Ginibi: Bundjalung Historian, Writer and Educator Patricia Grimshaw School of Historical and Philosophical Studies University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC. 3010 [email protected] Abstract: The chapter considers the leadership of Ruby Langford Ginibi, whose writings recorded the history of the Bundjalung people of the Northern Rivers Region of New South Wales. She became prominent in national debates on Indigenous issues from the publication in 1988 of her autobiography, Don’t Take Your Love to Town until her death in 2011. Langford Ginibi was an effective voice in the attempt to persuade non-Aboriginal Australians to acknowledge the oppressive character of settler colonialism and its outcome in negative aspects of many Indigenous Australians’ lives in contemporary Australia. Above all, she drove understanding of the precariousness Indigenous peoples’ livelihoods and the social wellbeing of their families when they left impoverished communities to seek waged work in far flung rural and in urban environments. Through her numerous publications, her research, public talks and interviews, Langford Ginibi made a major contribution to Australia that was recognized by numerous prestigious awards and an honorary doctorate. In 2012, a special issue of the Journal of the European Association of Studies on Australia commemorated her achievements. Key words: Aboriginal historians, Aboriginal writers, Indigenous rights, Bundjalung people, human rights, social justice In 1988 a Bundjalung woman, Ruby Langford (later Ruby Langford Ginibi), published her autobiography Don’t Take Your Love to Town to considerable applause, including the Australian Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission’s Award for Literature.1 Encouraged that she had an audience open to the story of the fraught life situations of Indigenous people, Langford Ginibi continued to produce works that informed non-Indigenous Australians about the past experiences of her people until shortly before her death in October 2011.

  • A Twentieth-Century Aboriginal Family
    Chapter 10 The Northern Territory, 1972 The 1972 Federal election was a time of heightened tension among interest groups in Australia. The Liberal-Country Party coalition had been in power since 1949 and all politically minded people sensed a change. All except those in power. Aboriginal poverty, high infant mortality rates and the question of Land Rights left Aboriginal leaders wondering how they could contribute in the political milieu they were confronted with. Charlie Perkins had been telling me for three or four years that he wanted to ‘get rid of this government’, in particular to show his contempt for the Country Party. Charlie at the time was an Assistant Secretary in the Department of Aboriginal Affairs and in spite of his role as a bureaucrat he was intimately involved in Aboriginal politics. So was I. On many occasions he would express his confidence that change in Aboriginal people’s living conditions were just around the corner while at other times he would be filled with despair. The time frame between accepting the nomination to run for the Northern Territory seat and leaving Sydney was very tight. As a family we had to sell the Summer Hill house to finance getting to, and living in Alice Springs. I had to resign from the Legal Service, make contact with the Australia Party base in Darwin and prepare my thinking for an election campaign. One of the first things I did was to speak to my colleague Len Smith to seek his views about if, and how, I should run my campaign.

    P129: The Personal Archives of Alfred Reginald RADCLIFFE-BROWN (1881- 1955), Professor of Anthropology 1926 – 1931 Contents Date Range: 1915-1951 Shelf Metre: 0.16 Accession: Series 2: Gift and deposit register p162 Alfred Reginald Radcliffe-Brown was born on 17 January 1881 at Aston, Warwickshire, England, second son of Alfred Brown, manufacturer's clerk and his wife Hannah, nee Radcliffe. He was educated at King Edward's School, Birmingham, and Trinity College, Cambridge (B.A. 1905, M. A. 1909), graduating with first class honours in the moral sciences tripos. He studied psychology under W. H. R. Rivers, who, with A. C. Haddon, led him towards social anthropology. Elected Anthony Wilkin student in ethnology in 1906 (and 1909), he spent two years in the field in the Andaman Islands. A fellow of Trinity (1908 - 1914), he lectured twice a week on ethnology at the London School of Economics and visited Paris where he met Emily Durkheim. At Cambridge on 19 April 1910 he married Winifred Marie Lyon; they were divorced in 1938. Radcliffe-Brown (then known as AR Brown) joined E. L. Grant Watson and Daisy Bates in an expedition to the North-West of Western Australia studying the remnants of Aboriginal tribes for some two years from 1910, but friction developed between Brown and Mrs. Bates. Brown published his research from that time in an article titled “Three Tribes of Western Australia”, The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. 43, (Jan. - Jun., 1913), pp. 143-194. At the 1914 meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science in Melbourne, Daisy Bates accused Brown of gross plagiarism.
