摘要

2016年4月15日是澳大利亚皇家土著羁押死亡调查委员会（RCIADIC）发表最终报告25周年纪念日。该报告标志着土著澳大利亚人与后殖民国家和联邦政府之间关系的里程碑。该委员会由Hawke Labor政府于1987年成立，调查了99例土著人死亡。最重要的是发现死亡原因是警察和监狱未能履行其照管职责，以及大量土著人被逮捕和监禁。

在RCIADIC之后，跨文化会议和文化能力工作坊已成为公务员、治疗师、以及法律和福利员工的普遍活动，试图建立起福利国家机构和土著客户之间的文化知识纽带。利用土著知识理论，本章评估了土著客户和那些以改善土著生活为名义与他们合作的人之间的文化失调是如何影响跨文化互动。在这个过程中提出了以下问题：善意如何成为土著澳大利亚人正在进行的殖民主义言论和实践的一部分，以及如何改变权力平衡，以利于与土著人民相关的村庄？

Author Biography

Suzi Hutchings, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT), Australia

Dr Suzi Hutchings is a Social Anthropologist and member of the Central Arrernte Nation. She is Associate Professor in Criminology and Justice Studies in the School of Global, Urban and Social Studies at RMIT University. She teaches Indigenous Studies, Indigenous policy and policy design.

Suzi’s career is dedicated to working with First Nations peoples and communities throughout Australia. Since 1983, as a social anthropologist and Indigenous scholar of native title and family jurisprudence, Suzi has been consulting on the impacts of criminal justice and welfare intervention on Aboriginal youth and families. Her most recent engagement in this capacity was with the Aboriginal Legal Rights Movement (SA) providing expert cultural evidence in a child protection matter for a Pitjantjatjara family living in South Australia and the Northern Territory.

Suzi has also worked extensively as a senior anthropologist on native title claims across Australia, including in Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia and the ACT. She was the senior anthropologist on the successful Esperance Nyungar native title claim. Suzi also collaborates with First Nations young people exploring innovative ways to maintain and express Indigenous identities, resilience, resistance, sovereignty and indigeneity through music and performance. This has included a highly successful co-production on Indigenous Hip-Hop with Melbourne based Indigenous musicians and Boonwurrung Elders, and the Australian Music Vault, Arts Centre Victoria.

Suzi produces and presents Subway Sounds for Community Radio station PBS 106.7FM in Melbourne. Suzi is co-editor with R. Aída Hernández Castillo and Brian Noble, of the 2019 publication: Transcontinental Dialogues: Activist Alliances with Indigenous Peoples of Canada, Mexico, and Australia, University of Arizona Press (https://uapress.arizona.edu/book/transcontinental-dialogues).
