Traditional Ties that Bind

Taking Co-Chairs of the National Congress of Australia’s First People’s-Dr Jackie Huggins & Rod Little, for a tour of the @islamicmuseumaustralia. An absolute delight sharing stories of connections between the First People with Macassans and Cameleers from the 1700’s onward.
Connections predate that of British colonial rule. And the storyline of these relationships is coloured with tales of camaraderie and family bloodlines. The ties are long and strong. 

Anticipating some collaborative ventures into the future to reignite vital connections #traditionalownersoftheland #respect #knowledge #power #islamicmuseumofaustralia #melbourne #curatortales #
