Victimised/Assimalised/Correctionalised – Howard Edwards
Fractured: Broken Ties, Reclaimed Lives
These short videos describe the effect of removal from families on the Stolen Generations, and introduces the Link-Up service to reunite families.
The Fractured project engaged Indigenous young people and their communities in producing images to reflect the strengths and participation of community members in everyday life. The stories are intended to challenge discrimination and racism and their effect on the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
Victimised/Assimalised/Correctionalised – Howard Edwards: Howard’s memories of being removed from his family, activism for Aboriginal people in Melbourne in the 1970s and 80s, and his work in community radion.
