Abstract:
Objective This study aimed to explore the relationships between experiences of perceived racism, mental health and drug and alcohol use among Aboriginal Australians. Method Sixty-two Aboriginal Australians, ranging in age from 19-64 years (Mage = 33.71, SD = 12.47) and residing in Victoria completed an online questionnaire containing measures of perceived racism, alcohol use, substance use and mental health. Results First, 66% of the sample reported experiencing interpersonal racism, with the highest proportion of reported experiences occurring in health settings, educational/academic settings and by staff of government agencies. Second, perceived racism was significantly associated with poorer mental health and well-being. Finally, while perceived racism was not significantly associated with substance use, there was an indirect pathway from perceived racism to substance use through mental health concerns. Conclusions The current research indicates that racism is still frequently experienced by Aboriginal Australians and is directly associated with poorer mental health, and indirectly with substance use through poorer mental health. The findings demonstrate a clear need for further research in this area.

Abstract:
This study is an acoustic investigation of voice quality in Australian English. The speech of 33 Indigenous Australians (Aboriginal English speakers) is compared to that of 28 Anglo Australians [Mainstream Australian English (MAE) speakers] from two rural locations in Victoria. Analysis of F0 and H1*-H2* reveals that pitch and voice quality differ significantly for male speakers according to dialect and for female speakers according to location. This study highlights previously undescribed phonetic and sociophonetic variability in voice quality in Australian English.

Abstract:
The Aboriginal and Islander Tertiary Aspiration Program (AITAP) aims to enhance the attendance and academic achievement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students during their secondary school years to increase the number of indigenous Australians successfully completing Year 12 studies. AITAP encourages them to nurture aspirations involving tertiary education while maintaining their pride in their cultural heritage. AITAP, which has been operating in NT schools since 1994, is about raising the level of expectations and aspirations of students, parents and teachers, and encouraging positive attitudes towards education and towards Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.

Abstract:
Australia's relationship with its Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples has changed in recent years. A most positive movement towards reconciliation is growing but not without being continually challenged by entrenched racist attitudes and sinful social structures within the community. This article attempts to offer some ethicaltheological parameters around which this fragile desire for reconciliation might mature. It discusses the results of recent data in the light of the concept of collective responsibility with its corresponding ethical implications. An application of these concepts to the Australian Christian churches is initiated and an overall challenge to all Australians will be suggested.

Abstract:
Objective There continue to be disparate health outcomes for people who are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander. The aim of the present study was to measure whether there were any differences in in-patient experiences between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and those without an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander background. Methods Random samples of people were invited to complete a survey following admission at the hospitals at Peninsula Health, Victoria, Australia. This survey was based on the Victorian Patient Satisfaction Monitor. Open-ended questions were also asked to gauge perspectives on how the services could better meet needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander patients. Results A total of 154 responses was obtained. There were differences between the two groups of participants in the following variables: respect of privacy, representation of culture, assistance with meals and access to a culturally specific worker if needed. This was reflected in thematic analysis, with three main themes identified: (1) interactions with staff; (2) the challenging environment; and (3) not just about me, but my family too. Conclusion There were systemic differences in in-patient experiences. Healthcare services have a responsibility to make systemic changes to improve the health care of all Australians by understanding and reforming how services can be appropriately delivered. What is known about the topic? There is a disparity in health outcomes between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians and those who do not identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander. In addition, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders have different interactions within healthcare services. Many rural health services have models that aim to deliver culturally appropriate services, but it is unknown whether the same challenges apply for this group of Australians within metropolitan health services. What does this paper add? This paper identifies the structural supports that are required to help close the gap in health care provision inequality. Many of the key issues identified are not people but system based. Healthcare administrators should consider the factors identified and address these at a whole-of-service level. What are the implications for practitioners? Many practitioners are aware of the challenges of providing culturally appropriate services. This research raises awareness of how traditional healthcare is not a one size fits all and flexibility is required to improve health outcomes.

Abstract:
Even though Aboriginal people are from Australia it does not mean they speak the English language (non-Aboriginal tertiary student).Jo Lampert's (1996) research discussed in her articleIndigenous Australian perspectives in teaching at the University of Queenslandspeaks volumes about the challenges of attempting to make university curricula inclusive of Indigenous Australian perspectives. She documents the often ambivalent attitudes of academics towards opening up the curriculum to Indigenous Australians. The research discussed here seeks to add to our understanding of this process, focussing this time on the response of students to the introduction of Australian Indigenous perspectives into a single unit within a Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Teaching program. The impetus to reflect on the process came with the shock of reading student papers, written at the end of the unit, and finding that effective communication about the educational needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples did not seem to have taken place, making a closer analysis of the teaching/learning process imperative. This investigation will address questions abouthowuniversities can communicate effectively about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to set out the effects of romanticism on attitudes of the New Age movement to Indigenous Aboriginal Australian culture and people. Past scholarship has clearly expounded insensitive and exploitative New Age appropriation of Indigenous culture and emphasized inequalities in the power to represent one's own group. Essentialist, romantic stereotypes detract from deep understanding of Indigenous Australians, and negotiated solutions are not really possible when the parties involved are in grossly unequal circumstances. Scholarship acknowledges diversity within Indigenous groups and the New Age movement as well as convergences and reciprocal cultural borrowing, often within romantic epistemologies. A simple dichotomy of cultural theft by New Age practitioners from Indigenous Australians is inadequate to explain the complexities of the interaction.

Abstract:
In his analysis of ‘paranoid nationalism’, Hage (2003: xii, 2) coins the figure of the ‘white worrier’ to identify how white Australians marginalized by the inequalities of economic rationalism and globalization displace their anxieties onto even weaker ‘others’, Aboriginal people and migrants, particularly refugees. Hage’s ideas are applied to the discourses used by young South Australians when they discuss Australian multiculturalism, immigration and reconciliation. Hage’s suggestion that white worrying is the response of the white working class male to his economic and ideological marginalization is only partially supported in this sample of young people. While those from non-English speaking and Indigenous backgrounds are much less likely to be ‘paranoid nationalists’, fear and loathing of the other are expressed across the socio-economic spectrum of young ‘white’ Australians, with exposure to a university education, either on the part of respondents or their parents, being the main antidote to hostile attitudes to the ‘other’.

Abstract:
This thesis reports on an exploration of the career aspirations and expectations of twelve female Aboriginal high school students in two different localities. It considers how cultural identity, racism, schooling, family relationships and employment opportunities influence these students' hopes and ideas. Aboriginal culture gives a prominent position to the Elders in the community and therefore this study also includes their views and the expectations they have for their young people. The research was carried out through a series of interviews. Throughout this study there is an emphasis on the importance of the participants own words and expressions, therefore it includes several quotes to capture their ideas rather than to impose too many interpretations. The participants views were structured within the systems theory framework. This framework was flexible and comprehensive enough to allow the students the option to place an emphasis on whichever areas or influences they felt were the most powerful for them. The family became the most prominent influence. The outcome of this research drew attention to the following issues. There was considerable difference between the two localities and this emphasised the danger in forming generalisations about Aboriginal people. The study also registered the impact of racism upon the students' self perceptions and expectations. Cultural characteristics such as a respect for Elders and a sense of community belonging dominated over concepts of individuality and autonomy. However the participants frequently expressed initiative as well as an awareness of the difference between the Aboriginal and White cultures, and they were often able to deal with this duality constructively when they considered their aspirations. It is recommended that practitioners in the field of careers and counselling should be sensitive to the issues raised in the thesis which can place particular pressure on young Aboriginal clients. Counsellors need to have a good understanding of Aboriginal history over the last two centuries as well as the impact of racism which can permeate the institutions of education and employment. ( The term 'Aboriginal' is used here in its generic sense to include Torres Strait Islanders. )

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis investigates the racism exhibited by Administrators, Pastoralists and Trade Unionists towards Aborigines employed in the Northern Territory cattle industry during the Depression years, 1929 to 1934. Their racism is examined within the framework of sociological and historical theories of racism. An historical evolution of racism is outlined, showing that from Colonial history emerged Colonial racism, which regarded 'natives' as an inferior race destined to serve as a cheap source of labour for European colonists. This racism occurred in two main forms: as a 'primitive' and violent racism; and as a 'civilised', paternalistic racism. The development of nationalism coincided with the rise of a Nationalistic racism which defined the nation as an homogeneous people, excluding all others as inherently inferior. As the colonial era drew to an end, and colonial 'natives' began to immigrate to Europe, their position within the modern nation-states became problematic. Where they continued to be regarded as a source of cheap labour, their exploitation provoked a racist reaction from the working class, referred to as Migrant Labour racism or Competitive racism. This thesis argues that European racism in the Northern Territory can only be fully understood if we consider that each of these forms of racism existed simultaneously. This historical anomaly saw the merging of a dependent colonial frontier with a modern nation-state, and the racist attitudes of the Europeans reflect this situation. The Administrators legitimised their racism with arguments of Social Darwinism while seeking to promote Nationalistic racism. Economic considerations, however, made the arguments of Colonial racism appear attractive. The Pastoralists exhibited Colonial racism in all its forms, both primitive and paternalistic. In their official dealings, they also utilised arguments of Nationalistic and Scientific racism. The Unionists exhibited a Competitive racism which was tempered by left-wing influences which advocated an end to racial discrimination as the only solution to Aboriginal competition. In each group, the manifestations of racism were complex and varied, revealing that racist ideology w as inextricably linked with social, economic and political considerations.

Full text
Abstract:
Over the past decade there have been dramatic and unprecedented changes in post compulsory education, with an increase of over 40% for year 12 retention rates to 76.6% in 1992 and huge expansion of year 11 and 12 vocational education and training programs. However, for Aboriginal past compulsory age students, the picture is very different. In 1993 the year 12 Aboriginal retention rate was only 24.48% or 982 students (Australia wide), and by 1996 only 10% of the indigenous 15 and older population had any post school qualification, compared to 35% of the total population. Only 34% of West Australian Indigenous 15 to 24 year olds were employed compared with 56% of the total population. Aboriginal students not participating in education have been the subject of many reports, reviews and studies, but few of these have looked at Aboriginal vocational education and training and even fewer at the Aboriginal students own perception of education. The purpose of this study is to explore and describe the experience of Aboriginal students who have been involved in secondary school vocational education and training programs at Wongutha Christian Aboriginal Parent-directed School (Wongutha CAPS) to ascertain particular experiences that affected the students in their post school situations. Apart from the value of sharing the experiences of Aboriginal students, it is anticipated that the conclusions of this study will: help identify methods of training that have been effective for Aboriginal students, help identify particular courses that more readily articulate into further training and employment, help identify the specific needs of Aboriginal vocational education and training students, help identify factors which have led to poor year 11 and 12 retention levels, and poor participation rates in employment, assist educators in developing vocational education and training curriculum that is relevant to the needs of Aboriginal students, and deleting from vocational education and training programs material that is not relevant. This study provides educators with a student's "inside view” of vocational education and training experiences. The study involves post secondary Aboriginals who participated in secondary vocational education and training programs at Wongutha CAPS for a period of six months or longer at some time within the past nine years. The study utilises a phenomenological methodology with data collection by interview.

Truscott, Keith. "Research problem: What are the differences between Wadjela and Nyungar criteria when assessing organisational effectiveness of non-government human service organisations?" Thesis, Edith Cowan University, Research Online, Perth, Western Australia, 2000. https://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses/1368.

Full text
Abstract:
Wadjela and Nyungar experts (of managerial, administrative, service staff), from the same South-West city location in Western Australia were randomly chosen from the non-government human service field for separate workshops and asked the question “what makes a non-government human service organisation effective?" The purpose was to compare the group consensus answer between the two separate workshop groups. The Nyungars are the Indigenous people in the South-West of Western Australia and the Wadjelas are the Non-Indigenous people living in the same area. The results listed five criteria, in order of priority that made non-government human service organisations effective. For the Wadjela community these were: I. A clear and shared vision of its task 2. Clear organisational structure which promotes strategic thinking and practice 3. Experienced and dedicated staff 4. Clear and client-based focus and strategies 5, Clarity of and relevant mission or goals. For the Nyungar community the results were: 1. A vision shared of Aboriginal culture and values 2. Appropriate management and finance incorporating Aboriginal culture and values 3. Recognition and identification of need 4. Diverse representation on Committee 5. Community involvement. Analysis and discussion of the findings were attempted from an Australian Indigenous perspective of people, place and parable. The conclusion is that the difference between Wadjela and Nyungar criteria in assessing organisational effectiveness in non-government organisations is that the former utilise a mechanical efficiency model and the latter a commitment to the whole community model. These differences were seen to be a contest between two world-views, that of a continuity of pragmatic relationships versus that of continuity of stewardship relationships.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses Australians’ attitudes towards the history of game hunting, giving insight to the complicated relationships among agricultural development, environmental degradation, and imperial recreational activities. Game acts established by the ASV show the issue of traditional game hunting, protection of animals, and decrease in food. The history of game legislation shows that hunting in Victoria was shaped by British sporting traditions, gold rush assertions of common property in game, concerns about declining native game numbers, and protecting the colonial food supply.

Abstract:
Alice Lim Kee, born 1900 in Rutherglen in rural Victoria, Australia, emigrated to China as a young adult and became a film actress, journalist, and pioneer broadcaster in Shanghai between the wars. She wrote on Chinese women – as Wu Ai-lien (伍愛蓮‎) – principally for the English-language Shanghai North-China Daily News. During the Sino-Japanese War, she returned to Australia as Mrs Fabian Chow, a goodwill ambassador to promote China's struggle against Japan. Feminist, modernist, social reformer, and Christian, she spent more than two years on a speaking tour of Australia. Her powerful, emotional, and personable style of speaking may well have had a pivotal role in changing White Australians' attitudes to China as a nation and the Chinese as a people.
