Sue\u0026amp;#x27;s extended family has experienced native title as an unwelcome imposition: something that has emanated from the state and out of which they gained only enemies. They rail against the logic of native title and oppose the extensive mineral exploration underway in their country.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut this is not simply a tale of conflict. Threaded throughout is the story of a twice-yearly event called \u0026amp;#x27;rockhole recovery\u0026amp;#x27;; trips that involve numerous days of four-wheel drive travel to a series of permanent water sources and Dreaming sites. \u003ci\u003eAgainst Native Title\u003c\/i\u003e captures the energy that fuels this unique, small-scale initiative. Rockhole recovery expresses the ways in which Sue Haseldine and her family continue to care for, and maintain connections to, Country - outside of the native title process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAgainst Native Title\u003c\/i\u003e pursues a controversial and much neglected line of enquiry: the native title process is not necessarily a force for good. This is a vivacious and very human story, which makes a vital contribution to national debates around issues of Aboriginal futures in remote and regional areas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46867078676638,"sku":"ADS-9781925302080","price":34.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781925302080.jpg?v=1779429445","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781925302080","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
