AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The Outsiders Within is an engaging account of the ways in which over hundreds of years Indigenous and Southeast Asian people across Australia have traded, inter-married and built hybrid communities. It is also a disturbing expose of the persistent, sometimes paranoid, efforts of successive white governments to police, marginalise and outlaw these encounters. ...brings to life the three-way relationship between Indigenous, Asian and white Australians by drawing on family narratives and oral histories as well as official documents; and re-examines Australia's identity, how it is constructed and what it forgets.'

'Fiction writing is a proliferating vocation in the Northern Territory (NT) and the increasing number of publications by Territory authors is testament to the work of The NT Writers’ Centre to encourage, guide and inspire Territorians to imagine and write. The NT Writers’ Festival, ‘Word Storm’, was held by the NT Writers’ Centre in 2010 and proved to be a highly commendable success which attracted renowned authors such as Arnold Zabel, Germaine Greer and Lionel Fogarty to promote literature, critical debate and cultural production through the Arts. According to audience surveys, however, Northern Territory author, Marie Munkara was voted as the most popular guest writer at the festival for her work, Every Secret Thing (2009). ...'
