Following its emergence in 2015, the first and second Turnbull administrations demonstrated an acute case of policy aporia, lacking direction or vision in relation to Indigenous policy. Faced with the Uluru Statement from the Heart in May 2017—the outcome of deliberations by over 250 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander representatives from across Australia—the Turnbull Government rejected its modest plans as ‘too ambitious’.1 This included the proposal for an elected ‘First Nations Voice’ that would act as an advisory body with far less institutional power than its predecessors, such as the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) abolished by the Howard Government in April 2004. Since the Uluru Statement, the various federal policy processes built around a proposed referendum on the constitutional recognition of Indigenous peoples have come to a grinding halt. The ‘Recognise’ advocacy body established to foster public support for such a referendum was quietly folded after receiving $25 million in federal funding over","PeriodicalId":437463,"journal":{"name":"Labour Lines and Colonial Power: Indigenous and Pacific Islander Labour Mobility in Australia","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129496187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The wife was an Australian expatriate and she wanted a Papuan ‘girl’ to accompany her to Australia to care for her children while she was on leave. Since Wedega had a desire to travel, and the only way for a Papuan woman to leave the country at the time was as a servant, she agreed to go. After one week of travel by ship with her employer and her employer’s children, Wedega arrived in Sydney. Initially, Wedega revelled in the excitement of visiting a new city; however, following abuse from her employer, she wished to return to Papua. As Wedega later relayed in her autobiography, Listen, My Country, ‘my employer didn’t treat me as an ordinary girl at all, but as a kind of slave’.1 Wedega’s meals consisted of the leftovers from her employer’s meals, which she was given on the verandah or in her room. Wedega told Beatrice Abel’s friend, who visited Wedega and took her to church in Sydney, that she was being abused and wished to return home. The friend wrote to Abel who wrote to Wedega’s employer demanding that she allow Wedega to return home.","PeriodicalId":437463,"journal":{"name":"Labour Lines and Colonial Power: Indigenous and Pacific Islander Labour Mobility in Australia","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122047466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this chapter, we examine some of the initial travels of Kāi Tahu people to Australia, focusing on the earliest periods of encounter with Europeans and Euro-Americans—collectively known as tākata pora (ship men or boat people). We do this to explore how this travel reflected Kāi Tahu worldviews, social structures and economic priorities. Shedding light on features of Kāi Tahu epistemologies of movement, we highlight how cultures of mobility and strategic responses to the historical circumstances they were operating within shaped Kāi Tahu decisions to travel to the Australian continent. We focus on Kāi Tahu people ‘Jacky Snapper’ and Tokitoki, and their takata pora companion, James Caddell, who first ventured to Sydney in 1822 from Foveaux Strait, as well as two young men, ‘Chief Attay’ and ‘Quolla’, believed to have been taken as hostages to Sydney in 1834. These young chiefs from Ōtākou are believed to have arrived in Sydney after having been kidnapped by the Sydney owners of an Ōtākou-based whaling station after increasing tensions with local Kāi Tahu. We also outline the longer history of travel to New South","PeriodicalId":437463,"journal":{"name":"Labour Lines and Colonial Power: Indigenous and Pacific Islander Labour Mobility in Australia","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117144754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This contradiction vividly illustrates Australia’s ambivalent attitude towards migrants from the Pacific. More than four decades later, the Australian Government’s view of Pacific people as permanent migrants has scarcely changed, although, in recent years, it has introduced the Seasonal Worker Programme (SWP), which encourages temporary labour migration from Pacific countries. This chapter explores the complex ways Australia’s immigration regime has influenced Pacific people’s mobility through forms of inclusion and exclusion, and their equally complex responses. In particular, we focus on the irregular migrants often referred to as ‘overstayers’ both by Australian authorities and within Pacific migrant communities.","PeriodicalId":437463,"journal":{"name":"Labour Lines and Colonial Power: Indigenous and Pacific Islander Labour Mobility in Australia","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121654125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
