Baganan’s Message

“untitled” by Baganan charcoal on paper digitally tinted
Homeland movement is the movement of the people back to their forefathers and foremothers land . To walk in the footsteps of our people who have gone on before and who have looked after our lands since the beginning of time. Their remembrance will always go on in our hearts and to provide a way of looking after our people and our land for future generations of the Pitta Pitta and Kalakadoon children of these nations so they won’t have to suffer from disassociation of lands and identity crises themselves as the past two generations of stolen children and their children was because of forced removal from our lands.
To build new trading routes and maintain old trading routes
To dream new dances and maintain the old dances
To build new houses and maintain the Old house
To teach new ways and maintain the old ways
To plant new trees and maintain the old trees
To dance on new coroboree grounds a
And maintian the old corroboree grounds
To break the malnutrition cycle by eating our foods
To bury our people on their lands
To birth our children ’s childrens on our lands
Aboriginal women reclaiming culture and land
The Aboriginal women is back from desolation, isolation, domestication and colonisation and she is looking to take care of her business in a way that has always been taught to her from her Aboriginal mother the love and life of us all through times of starvations our mothers would cook up bush food thrown in to get us through the hard times, as the colonisation of our people and our lands eroded our economics and structures that took since the beginning of time to put into place. Within the 200 years there has been alien sets of values and foreign rules that have always left the Aboriginal women and her children her husband were the most at risks the Aboriginal women have seen the disintegration of her nation as she maintains the family structures for future generations.
Aborigininity in Sustainability is the operation of Aboriginal women’s life stories . As the earth is our mother there is no one better to understand then an Aboriginal women who had the privilege of having an Aboriginal mother as this is right, and a very fulfilled time of learning about her people , women’s being have brought life and have sustained life
The mothers have been exposed to western values and standard and have been able to get ride of the bullshit and replace it with sound enlightenment of who they are.
