Book talk: Anxieties of Belonging in Settler Colonialism: Australia, Race and Place
Book talk: Anxieties of Belonging in Settler Colonialism: Australia, Race and Place with Lisa Slater, University of Wollongong, Australia.
Lisa Slater is a settler colonial scholar and Associate Professor at the University of Wollongong, Australia. Her work examines Indigenous-settler relations, in all of its messy, complex materiality. She seeks to reveal what culturally and emotionally drives policy-makers, such as government and non-government agencies, and ‘progressive’ settlers’ engagement with Aboriginal Australians, and how it plays out in concrete local forms. Secondly, she examines how Aboriginal people utilize cultural initiatives to contest settler colonialism and affirm sovereignty. Her projects have a strong focus on remote and rural Australia. Her monograph, Anxieties of Belonging in Settler Colonialism, was publish in 2019 (Routledge).
