Excellent- More about An Australian Indigenous Diaspora: Warlpiri Matriarchs and the Refashioning of Tradition
This book explores how Warlpiri matriarchs sustain their independent lives and their changing relationship with their traditional culture, constituting an "indigenous diaspora" by following them into new locations.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 248 pages
Publication date: 01 April 2023
Publisher: Berghahn Books
Some indigenous people, while remaining attached to their traditional homelands, leave them to forge a new life for themselves in white towns and cities, thus constituting an "indigenous diaspora." This groundbreaking book is the first ethnographic account of one such indigenous diaspora, the Warlpiri, whose traditional hunter-gatherer life has been transformed through their dispossession and involvement with ranchers, missionaries, and successive government projects of recognition. By following several Warlpiri matriarchs into their new locations, far from their home settlements, this book explores how they sustained their independent lives and examines their evolving relationship with the traditional culture they represent.
