More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
Rosalind Kidd has good news and bad news. - The good news is that Queensland government departments are awash with files on Aboriginal families - where they were allowed to live, where they worked, whether they were allowed to marry, whether families were split, what they could earn, and even what proportion of those earnings they were allowed to keep. - There's evidence of permanent and pernicious Aboriginal poverty, while governments deprived people of around 86% of their own money. - The bad news is the problem of prising this information out of unwilling and stonewalling official hands. - If you've never doubted the "benign intent" and "essentially lawful" practice of removal of children, you will when you've read this.
