'The article looks at the issues surrounding the depiction of Indigenous Australians in the book "Dark Emu" by Bruce Pascoe. Topics discussed include the failure of Pascoe to ask the Indigenous people about the practices and lifestyles of older Aborigines according to a scholarly critique, call of Pascoe for change in farming practices and lifestyle choices in the book, and failure of Pascoe to provide carefully crafted, respectful and informed stories.'
