Summary

"The No-Nonsense Guide to Indigenous Peoples looks beyond the exotic images, tracing the story of different indigenous peoples from their first (and often fatal) contact with explorers and colonisers to the present day." "Much of this story is told by indigenous people themselves. They vividly describe why land and the natural world are so special to them; how it feels to be snatched from your family as a child because the government wants to 'make you white'; why they are demanding that museums must return the bones of their ancestors; how they can retain their traditional culture while moving with the times; and what kinds of development are positive. Lotte Hughes' Guide will provoke thought and debate."--BOOK JACKET
