Unlearning the Past: Indigenous Australian History

What it covers

This unit explores Australia’s shared history, untangling the origins of colonial and postcolonial attitudes and their continued influence on contemporary Australian society. It reconsiders Australia’s post-contact history to unlearn the past and address significant historical gaps and omissions through the perspectives of Indigenous voices, experiences, standpoints and agency. The unit presents a balanced picture of Australian history and a multilayered account of Indigenous Australian experiences within the national story, paying particular attention to the experiences of Victorian Aboriginal peoples over the last two and a half centuries.
