Quandamooka Aboriginal women on the colonial frontier in the nineteenth century

该项目旨在通过揭示土著妇女在劳动和性剥削这一通常主题之外的能动性，对澳大利亚殖民边疆的性别和种族问题提出新的见解。历史记录往往将土著妇女描述为受害者，这影响了自尊，造成健康状况不佳和社会疏远。该项目将研究土著妇女如何抵制殖民化和与殖民化谈判，方法是检查昆达穆卡妇女在世纪在她们自己的土地昆士兰州的莫尔顿湾的日常和公开表现。该项目旨在促进土著妇女的健康和福祉。

This project aims to produce new insights about gender and race on the colonial frontier in Australia through revealing Aboriginal women's agency beyond the usual themes of labour and sexual exploitation. The historical record has too often represented Aboriginal women as victims, which has affected self-esteem and caused poor health and social alienation. This project will research how Aboriginal women resisted and negotiated with colonisation by examining the everyday and public performances of Quandamooka women on their own lands, Moreton Bay, Queensland, in the nineteenth century. The project aims to benefit the health and well-being of Aboriginal women.
