About the Book

Listen to these voices … I want the reader to think about what they have to say, and what they say about their history, so different from whitefellas. I want the reader to think about how the blackfellas live today, and how the reader would cope with such a life. I present these stories, or part stories, so we may consider whether any difference we hear about is simply one of culture, or whether the things that have happened to blackfellas, which whitefellas have never experienced, have had an important influence in shaping their lives. This book is a product of a whitefella’s desire to see justice brought to those whom Australia’s formal justice system has so far failed: the blackfellas. It is an attempt to present a history that embraces the Aboriginal side of the Pilbara story.
