Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia
Marriageability and Indigenous Representation in the White Mainstream Media in Australia PhD Thesis 2007 Andrew King BA (Hons) Supervisor: Associate Professor Alan McKee Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology Abstract By means of a historical analysis of representations, this thesis argues that an increasing sexualisation of Indigenous personalities in popular culture contributes to the reconciliation of non-Indigenous and Indigenous Australia. It considers how sexualised images and narratives of Indigenous people, as they are produced across a range of film, television, advertising, sport and pornographic texts, are connected to a broader politics of liberty and justice in the present postmodern and postcolonial context. By addressing this objective the thesis will identify and evaluate the significance of ‘banal’ or everyday representations of Aboriginal sexuality, which may range from advertising images of kissing, television soap episodes of weddings, sultry film romances through to more evocatively oiled-up representations of the pin- up-calendar variety. This project seeks to explore how such images offer possibilities for creating informal narratives of reconciliation, and engendering understandings of Aboriginality in the media beyond predominant academic concerns for exceptional or fatalistic versions. i Keywords Aboriginality Indigenous Marriageability Reconciliation Popular Culture Sexuality Relationships Interracial Public Sphere Mediasphere Celebrity ii Table of Contents Introduction …………………………………………………………………………. -

'Black Is Beautiful', and Indigenous: Aboriginality and Authorship In
QUT Digital Repository: http://eprints.qut.edu.au/31201 King, Andrew S. (2010) 'Black is beautiful', and Indigenous : Aboriginal authorship in Australian popular music. Continuum : Journal of Media and Cultural Studies, 24(4). pp. 533-542. © Copyright 2010 Taylor & Francis. ‘Black is Beautiful’, and Indigenous: Aboriginality and Authorship in Australian Popular Music Introduction [I]t seemed to me as though a battle had been won, when the blacks all over the world began calling themselves ‘blacks’. And, so what! You know, black is black; and it’s beautiful! (Bandler cited in Lake, 2002) Though historically Indigenous and African-American populations have been racially classified as ‘black’ within white societies – a term first adopted for its association with un- cleanliness (Dyer, 1997) – their histories of representation are widely divergent. Since the nineteen-sixties, the term ‘black’ was radically reclaimed by African American people, witnessed through the emergence of the ‘black is beautiful’ movement. ‘Black is beautiful’ was a movement that changed public aesthetics and fashion forever and, as it did so, sought to establish a more dignified sense of public representation for African American people. It was a movement that re-claimed black identity by asserting new forms of public authorship within the public sphere based upon looking and feeling good, as a black person. As an identity-based social movement, ‘black is beautiful’ helped establish ‘black’ as a term for mobilising new political action, in the United States and globally. It is with the establishment of Indigenous civil rights movements based on these principles that the opening quotation, a conversation between the Aboriginal civil rights campaigner Faith Bandler and novelist Len Fox, becomes meaningful.
