Munja was a community in Western Australia, established by white Australians for indigenous Australians. The passage describes the growth and decline of the community, the supplies offered to the indigenous Australians, and the labour they were required to do. Leprosy devastated the community, with people removed to the Derby leprosarium, often with violations of human rights to expedite the process.
