We sing our home, We dance our land : indigenous self-determination and contemporary geopolitics in Australian popular music

Auteur :
GIBSON, C.

Description :
An analysis of the cultural apparatus, recordings, and popular performance events of indigenous musicians reveals the construction of arenas of empowerment at a variety of geographical scales, within which genuine spaces of Aboriginal self-determination and self expression can exist. The emergence of a vibrant Aboriginal popular music scene requires a rethinking of Australian music, and appeals for greater recognition of Aboriginal artists' sophisticated geopolitical strategies.
