SOLONEC Shared Lives on Nigena Country
Shared lives on Nigena country: A joint Biography of Katie and Frank Rodriguez, 1944-1994. Jacinta Solonec 20131828 M.A. Edith Cowan University, 2003., B.A. Edith Cowan University, 1994 This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities (Discipline – History) 2015 Abstract On the 8th of December 1946 Katie Fraser and Frank Rodriguez married in the Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Derby, Western Australia. They spent the next forty-eight years together, living in the West Kimberley and making a home for themselves on Nigena country. These are Katie’s ancestral homelands, far from Frank’s birthplace in Galicia, Spain. This thesis offers an investigation into the social history of a West Kimberley couple and their family, a couple the likes of whom are rarely represented in the history books, who arguably typify the historic multiculturalism of the Kimberley community. Katie and Frank were seemingly ordinary people, who like many others at the time were socially and politically marginalised due to Katie being Aboriginal and Frank being a migrant from a non-English speaking background. Moreover in many respects their shared life experiences encapsulate the history of the Kimberley, and the experiences of many of its people who have been marginalised from history. Their lives were shaped by their shared faith and Katie’s family connections to the Catholic mission at Beagle Bay, the different governmental policies which sought to assimilate them into an Australian way of life, as well as their experiences working in the pastoral industry. -

ISPA International Society for the Performing Arts
International Society for the ISPA Performing Arts TODAY’S FUTURE FOR THE ARTS NEW YORK CONGRESS JANUARY 8–10, 2019 Theatre buildings by theatre people for theatre people. Clockwise from top left: Linbury Theatre, Royal Opera House; The Yard at Chicago Shakespeare Theater; Hudson Theatre, Broadway; Studio Theatre, Bristol Old Vic. MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF ISPA Dear Friends, ransitions. We all think about them. Some of us worry about them. But we are all impacted by them. As much as we may try to be present each moment of our days, it is the rare person who does not ponder what comes next. Transitions can be as exhilarating as they are scary. In these times of rapid-fire change and volatility (mostly beyond our personal control), it is Teasy to default to a position of wanting to hang on to what we know. Stay the course. Be steady. Reduce risk. WELCOME Yet continuing to do the same thing that works for us today may be the very act that fails us tomorrow. Our Congress Co-chairs Collette Brennan and Steinunn Ragnarsdóttir have given us a brilliantly provocative theme to consider with an array of thought-leaders from within our field and beyond offering varied perspectives on how we might navigate the inevitability of the transitions we encounter. For me, transitions is a particularly apt theme as I prepare to pass on the chairmanship of ISPA to our colleague Tisa Ho. As an ISPA member for 20 years and board member for most of that time, I have been fortunate to work with so many gifted members who have given selflessly in leading ISPA through incredible Transitions. -

The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples: a Framework for Australian Indigenous Rights Protection
Chapter 2 An Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander human rights protection framework for the 21st century All Australians are equally entitled to enjoy the rights, benefits and responsibilities of citizenship. In our society, every person should feel free from discrimination of any kind and have the right to share in the nation’s land, resources and wealth. The entitlements and freedoms of all people are recognised in human rights instruments, many of which have been freely signed and ratified by Australia, and in some instances are now a part of Australian law. However, it is an unavoidable reality of our past that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have not had the opportunity to fully enjoy their human rights. This is because of the process of colonisation, the dispersal, removal and dispossession of many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and a history of discrimination. The full exercise and enjoyment of the human rights of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples is an essential foundation for reconciliation.1 Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation – Roadmap to Reconciliation (2000) Part 1: Introduction Australia has much that it can be proud of. Over the past 220 years, our strong traditions of liberal democracy, an independent judiciary and a vibrant media sector have secured our ongoing political stability and our prosperity. For the majority of Australians, these strong traditions have also been sufficient to protect their basic rights and freedoms. But this is not true for all Australians. A commitment to human rights in Australia means working towards justice for every citizen, and not simply for the popular majority. -
