Indigenous Communities: Grappling with Legacies of Atrocity

  • Summary

  • We continue our series with a discussion surrounding the complex, multigenerational legacies of abuse, genocide, and oppression faced by Indigenous communities. In order to understand the impact of atrocity crimes on Indigenous communities, we must frame these injustices within a historical context and address their contemporary consequences. Our two expert guests explain the unique experiences of Indigenous legacy and healing in both Canada and Australia while emphasizing the need for real commitments and real change on the behalf of governments to avoid perpetuating cycles of injustice. Guests: Councilwoman Emelda Davis is the first Black woman elected to serve on the City of Sydney Council in its 180-year history and is a representative on the Clover Moore Independent Team. She is also a second generation born Australian South Sea Islander (ASSI) – a descendant of our Pacific slave trade to New South Wales in 1847. Dr. Karine Duhamel is currently the Director of Indigenous Strategy for the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. She was also Director of Research for the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, drafting the Final Report, as well as managing the Forensic Document Review Project and the Legacy Archive.
