Current writings by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people belong within a cultural and historical continuity that
predates the invasion whilst utilising, adapting and challenging the written genres and forms of the colonising culture.

● “Theatre of pathology” Fiona Nicholls
“We have been portrayed … as negligent and abusive parents, extremely violent, sexually abusive, corrupt, alcoholic, substance abusers and bludgers on welfare, suffering from cultural disfunction …”
Aileen Moreton-Robinson, 2012

Blogging, & other forms of online publication, allow writers to define themselves (and their Aboriginality). It can provide a space where First Nations Peoples can play, explore, create, debate, rant and vent, satirise, and philosophise the world in which we live.
Online publication, like other forms of publication, are defined by particular structures. Issues of access, ownership, permanence, and security all impact on the effectiveness of online publication for First Nations Peoples. But the potential to throw down or bypass the gatekeepers of traditional publication is too great to ignore.
