An engaging and thoroughly convincing exploration of pre-invasion Aboriginal farming practices.
Dark Emu challenges the conventional ‘hunter-gatherer’ label applied to pre-colonial Aboriginal Australians, countering the colonial narratives that have facilitated their dispossession. Renowned writer Bruce Pascoe presents persuasive evidence from early explorers’ journals, indicating that traditional accounts have significantly downplayed the sophistication of Aboriginal food production and land management techniques. This work calls for a fresh examination of Australian history.
