Description

Mapping intercultural relationships played out in a remote Aboriginal settlement in the Great Sandy Desert, this book challenges White Australians to reconsider their relationship with Indigenous peoples. Unpacking White cultural practices, it explores the extraordinary difficulties which Indigenous women face when they attempt to maintain and pass their cultural knowledge, customs and skills on to their children and youth. Zohl dé Ishtar is the author of ‘Daughters of the Pacific’ and works at University of Queensland.
