A 13-part series 9: The Dreamer Wakes
What happened to the Aborigines when 'the fierce white strangers' arrived from Europe? Some. like Pemulwuy, fought back so successfully that the British tried to remove his name from recorded history; others were treated as less than human. Today Aborigines tell of their struggle for civil rights, and their attempt to bestow their ecological and spiritual values upon modern Australia.
