'The evidence of our own past has been torn asunder': Putting place back into urban Aboriginal History

Peter Read

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

It is easy to demonstrate the lack of signage about the history of Aboriginal Sydney, but it is not all due to racism and apathy. Ignorance and forgetfulness are relevant too. Here I argue not for more signage, but, while continuing further research, to bring the information that we already have online into twoor three-dimensional forms.
