Join us for a series of three civics and citizenship focused webinars across the school year. 

The first, An Aboriginal Voice in early colonial Moreton Bay, is an extended conversation between Joy Schultz (SCEAQ secretary) and retired USQ Associate Professor Libby Connors, author of Warrior: A legendary leader’s dramatic and violent death on the colonial frontier. The history of the warrior, Dundalli, growing up in traditional society, and then confronted with having to lead his people in a different world, is used as an exemplar of the clash of cultures, and especially a clash of political and legal expectations in colonial times. However, it also allows us to explore the diversity of traditional cultures in the area, and the diversity of attitudes of the Europeans who came, as we explore the Civics and Citizenship concepts of diversity and identity, and legal systems.
