Więcej o książce

Focusing on media representations of race relations in Australia, the book explores how colonial press narratives shaped perceptions of Aboriginal people over 200 years. It highlights the exclusion of indigenous voices in mainstream news coverage of significant events, revealing persistent stereotypes. The study emphasizes the power of journalists in framing cultural images and discusses how indigenous communities have developed their own media channels to reclaim their narratives. It concludes with recommendations for improving media practices to foster reconciliation between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians.
