Before beginning this presentation, I would just like to acknowledge the area which we now know as the City of Wyndham was a place of much significance to the local Aboriginal people and that we should respect the first Australians of this land. Many native people around the world have been known to undergo a pattern of mistreatment and oppression, Australia is not exempt from this. There have been a few improvements over the years, as many have tried to restore the implications made in the…

believe that by changing the Australian flag can help to reinforce our national pride. A flag is a representative of a nation and its people. Our current flag demonstrates a strong sense of pride and the same emotions will still be carried through by the new flag. By changing the flag design it would display a more clear and recognisable Australian identity. Our Australian flag has been around for many years, since the last design was created. However, it has always lead to some confusions to…

Chris Crutcher’s Whale Talk tackles a lot of important issues and topics facing teens and young adults. One of those is abuse. He tells about how different characters deal with and overcome their abuse through theme, tone, and modern connections. It is important to know that not everyone deals with abuse the same way, and that not everyone has someone to help them deal with their issues. Two characters in Whale Talk have been abused and they dealt with it in very different ways. One of the…

Though many people of the Australian population view Australia Day as a day off to relax, January 26th has always been divisive, with the remainder of the population seeing January 26th as Invasion Day in lieu of a day of celebration. The article ‘Australia Day nationalism walks in the footsteps of ugly precedents’ by Robin Tennant-Wood was written for The Conversation on the 14th of January, 2014 and has one main idea: the meaning of Australia Day has strayed and does not do justice in…

Fiji is a beautiful place. When you see the island in a distance, green is seen everywhere. We will be talking about the geography, the people and culture, the economy and resources, the politics and government, and the challenges they are facing. Some of these topics are positive, but some are hiding behind the beauty of the island. Fiji is located in the middle of the south central Pacific Ocean. It is comprised of more than 30 islands, ranging from small atolls to larger volcanic islands.…

For my first ethnographic film, I chose Ten Canoes a film about the Yolngu people of the Arnhem Land in Northern Australia. This film was made in 2006 and is a great film about the native Australian aborigines. This film stars off in the swamp area with the men walking in a straight line beginning to cut down trees as the narrator tells a story about the native people and their deep, long culture. The story is about the group of men and their traditional way of life with the main character being…

then was the true extent of Polynesia realised. And so then the idea of the Polynesians intentionally sailing into this great ocean to find and settle islands became a possible theory(https://www.pbs.org/wayfinders/polynesian3.html).But in 1956 New Zealand historian Andrew Sharp proposed that the Polynesians were probably more likely to have accidentally discovered Tahiti, he claims that the boats were not seaworthy enough, and their navigational equipment was not accurate enough(text book…

rare day of remembrance held in two different countries for the same occasion, ANZAC Day will soon be observed in both Australia and New Zealand. The day, initially held to honor Australian and New Zealand soldiers who died in a bloody World War I campaign, now commemorates all veterans from both nations. The wartime event it marks played a key role in fostering a new sense of identity at a time when both countries were still in their infancy. Here’s all you need to know about when ANZAC Day…
