about

A song acknowledging the horror of Australia’s frontier wars and the continued act of colonisation implied when we refuse to embrace ‘truth-telling’ about our colonial history.

The song recognises storytelling, retelling and remembering as powerful forms of protest and healing.

I thank Patrick Davies from Fitzroy Crossing, Western Australia, for his guidance in writing about this topic from a white perspective.
Patrick is a Waanyi defendant and descendant and a celebrated songwriter.

This track was sponsored by Pam Pemberton via Pozible.
