Hardback. Condizione: New. Tamarra: A Story of Termites on Gurindji Country is a fascinating, illustrated science book that takes kids inside the life of termites through storytelling from the Gurindji People. Did you know there are four types of termite poo? Or that a warm paste made from termite mound is used to strengthen a Gurindji baby's body and spirit? Or that spinifex (which termites eat) is one of the strongest plants in the world? Created as a collaboration between over 30 First Nations and non-Indigenous contributors, the story and artworks explore how termites and their mounds connect different parts of Country, from tiny Gurindji babies and their loving grandmothers, to spiky spinifex plants growing in the hot sun. Written in traditional Gurindji, Gurindj Kriol and English (with a QR code to an audio version spoken in language), Tamarra is a truly original story with beautiful artworks that takes readers on an educational and cultural journey through Gurindji Country. Suitable for children aged 7 to 12 years.…

The book is illustrated by 35 Gurindji artists, and is written in Gurindji, Gurindji Kriol and English.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. On 23 August 1966, approximately 200 Gurindji stockmen and their families walked off Wave Hill Station in the Northern Territory, protesting against poor working conditions and the taking of their land by pastoralists.Led by Vincent Lingiari, this landmark action in 1966 precipitated the equal wages case in the pastoral industry and the establishment of the Aboriginal Land Rights (Northern Territory) Act 1976.While it is well known that the Walk-Off was driven by the poor treatment of Aboriginal workers, what is less well known is the previous decades of massacres and killings, stolen children and other abuses by early colonists.Told in both English and Gurindji, these compelling and detailed oral accounts of the events that Gurindji Elders either witnessed or heard from their parents and grandparents, has ignited the interest of audiences nationally and internationally and challenged revisionist historians who question the extent of frontier battles and the legitimacy of the Stolen Generations.It is widely acknowledged that the 1966 Wave Hill Walk-Off with Vincent Lingiari leading the Gurnidji people was a seminal moment in the history of Aboriginal societys tragic encounters with the European occupiers of Australia. Still, up to now, few Gurindji voices have been heard, especially on the period preceding the Walk-Off. The new history contained here: oral accounts, maps, paintings, photos and citations, does much to fill the chasm in our understanding of the circumstances preceding that fateful moment when Lingiari and Gurindji stood their ground. I highly commend this intimate, heart wrenching, and informative account of one of the single most important events in our recent past. Peter Garrett, musician, activist and former federal minister Yijarni received wide-spread praise when it was released in 2016 for its truth telling and insight into the start of native title rights for Aboriginal people. Now with a new foreword by Brenda L Croft, Yijarni is re-issued to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Wave Hill Walk-Off.
