Freehold Ownership One Step Closer Issue 155: 5 June 2014 Freehold ownership one step closer Natural Resources and Mines Minister Andrew Powell has tabled the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Land (Providing Freehold) and other Legislation Amendment Bill 2014 in Queensland parliament, which may take Palm Island residents a step closer towards owning their own home on the Island.

Enquanto indi­ cadores como mortalidade infantil, expectativa de vida, desnutrição, pobreza, alta taxa de desemprego, de prisão e de abuso afetam suas vidas diárias, o esporte tem sido um caminho para o reconhecimento e até para a bajulação, especialmente nos estádios esportivos de futebol australiano, rúgbi, boxe e campos de hóquei.

AIEF is an excellent example of how individuals and corporate organisations can make a difference to the lives of Indigenous children by facilitating access to educational opportunities that would not otherwise be available to them, and to do so in an efficient framework that provides clear, transparent and regular reporting. This initiative also benefits non-Indigenous children in our schools by providing the opportunity for our non-Indigenous students to form bonds of friendship with, and cultural understanding of, their Indigenous classmates. In this way, we are together working towards a brighter future for all Australians and empowering Indigenous children to have real choices in life.

  • Australia and the Pacific
    AUSTRALIA AND THE PACIFIC: THE AMBIVALENT PLACE OF PACIFIC PEOPLES WITHIN CONTEMPORARY AUSTRALIA Scott William Mackay, BA (Hons), BSc July 2018 Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Australian Indigenous Studies Program School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne 0000-0002-5889 – Abstract – My thesis examines the places (real and symbolic) accorded to Pacific peoples within the historical production of an Australian nation and in the imaginary of Australian nationalism. It demonstrates how these places reflect and inform the ways in which Australia engages with the Pacific region, and the extent to which Australia considers itself a part of or apart from the Pacific. While acknowledging the important historical and contemporary differences between the New Zealand and Australian contexts, I deploy theoretical concepts and methods developed within the established field of New Zealand- centred Pacific Studies to identify and analyse what is occurring in the much less studied Australian-Pacific context. In contrast to official Australian discourse, the experiences of Pacific people in Australia are differentiated from those of other migrant communities because of: first, Australia’s colonial and neo-colonial histories of control over Pacific land and people; and second, Pacific peoples' important and unique kinships with Aboriginal Australians. Crucially the thesis emphasises the significant diversity (both cultural and national) of the Pacific experience in Australia. My argument is advanced first by a historicisation of Australia’s formal engagements with Pacific people, detailing intersecting narratives of their migration to Australia and Australia’s colonial and neo- colonial engagements within the Pacific region.

  • THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDERS of MACKAY, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA by CLIVE MOORE
    THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDERS OF MACKAY, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA by CLIVE MOORE From: Fitzpatrick, Judith M. (ed.), Endangered Peoples of Oceania: Struggles to Survive and Thrive, Westport (Ct), Greenwood Press, 2001 (pp 167-81) CULTURAL OVERVIEW The People Today approximately fifteen thousand Australians claim descent from Pacific Islanders taken to Queensland as indentured labourers between 1863 and 1904. Sixty- two thousand contracts were issued to around fifty thousand Islanders under the terms of the Masters and Servants Act and other legislation enacted to govern their employment.1 Queensland is huge, two and a half times as big as Texas. Until about 1880 the Islanders could be employed in any pastoral or maritime industry in the colony, but thereafter they were restricted to the sugar industry along the east coast. The majority were from eighty islands in Melanesia, mainly those included in the New Hebrides (present-day Vanuatu) and the Solomon Islands, but also from the Loyalty Islands off New Caledonia and the eastern archipelagoes of Papua New Guinea, plus a few from Tuvalu and Kiribati. Roughly one-third were from the Solomons and two-thirds fromVanuatu. The Setting The Pioneer Valley at Mackay, located midway between Brisbane and Cairns on the coast of central Queensland, is the largest sugar-producing area in Australia and has always had the largest Pacific Islander population, although the residual Islander community there is different in that Islanders of Solomons descent predominate. Descendants of nineteenth-century immigrants from the Pacific Islands, who prefer to be known as South Sea Islanders, are very visible around Mackay, making up around twenty-five hundred of the eighty thousand urban population.

  • Reflecting on Race, Politics and Sport1
    1 Reflecting on Race, Politics and Sport 1 Colin Tatz is Visiting Professor in Politics and International Relations at the Australian National University and founding director of the Australian Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Studies, Sydney. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: This essay is a reflective overview of Aboriginal and Islander sport, locating their sporting achievements across the decades and in the contexts of several policy eras: the genocidal period, the protection- segregation regime, the assimilation and integration ages, the present era of ‘autonomy’. The essay focuses on the obstacles in the way of sporting success to the point where these minorities have not only become predominant in the ‘stadium sports’ but have come into their own in sports either previously closed to them or not readily accessible. While sport has done much for individuals, sport as such has had little impact on many communities now in states of distress. KEYWORDS: Aboriginal history, Aboriginal life on reserves, discrimination in sport, sporting triumphs 1 Revised version of a keynote address presented at Sporting Traditions XX: Old Stories — New Histories, Darwin, 1 July 2015.
