1 2 y separately published work icon Holocaust Revisited : Killing Time Graeme Dixon , Nedlands : School of Indigenous Studies, University of Western Australia , 2003 Z1063370 2003 selected work poetry life story essay

'Graeme Dixon's journey is one that has been made too often by too many Aboriginal people. It is a journey that lies within a legal system that has at its core a lock and key: on doors and windows, in hearts and minds it incarcerates whole communities. Graeme's poems and stories speak from the heart and they speak from experience, the living voice of Aboriginal prisoners past and present.' Source: Holocaust Revisited: Killing Time (2003)
1 1 y separately published work icon Echoes of the Past : Sister Kate's Home Revisited Sally Morgan (editor), Nedlands : School of Indigenous Studies, University of Western Australia , 2002 Z1415239 2002 anthology oral history poetry

'The intention of this publication has been to highlight the forced removal of Aboriginal children from their Aboriginal families to be placed in government settlements, missions and children's homes. In this publication Aboriginal people who were removed as children recount personal oral histories of separation from their mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters and extended families. Recounted as well, is the trauma experienced by the parents, who were physically and legally disempowered by the laws and policies which governed all aspects of Aboriginal peoples' lives'.

This project arose from a need in Noongar communities in the Wheatbelt and Great Southern regions of Western Australia to bring together youth and Elders to share history, culture and life experiences. This project has involved a broad range of arts and cultural activities including dance, story telling, oral history recordings and visits to Aboriginal sites in both regions.
