AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'After a three-year hiatus, it feels fitting that we return with a special issue dedicated to the Voice referendum. The referendum is close to the heart of Territorians, as thirty percent of our population is Indigenous, the highest in the nation. This special issue also speaks to the very heart of what Borderlands is and why Borderlands was founded: as a space to a give a voice to Territory and First Nations storytellers – stories of this place, by storytellers from this place, in all storytelling traditions.' (Editorial introduction)

Notes

  • Epigraph:

    The seasons are shifting. The air is heavier. Dry season’s blue skies now speckled grey by cloud formations teasing the rains we crave. Humidity rising. Larrakia Country.

    The rains that teased for weeks broke as we finalised this issue’s copy. Blue speckled skies now a light grey plane with an occasional peek of blue. Mosquitoes biting. Green tree frogs singing. Larrakia Country.

  • Contents indexed selectively.
