What it covers

This unit develops students' knowledge of Indigenous Australian issues and emphasises the diversity of Indigenous Australia and its people. It provides a solid understanding of the pervasive power of colonial representations and the ways in which these have functioned during the contact period (1770-present) to shape non-Indigenous understandings of Australia's Indigenous peoples. The unit also investigates the impact that representational constructs have had in shaping the lives of Indigenous Australians, and the role of all citizens in this investigation.
