During the period from 1900 to 1936 Aborigines in the south west of Western Australia experienced profound changes in their way of life and their status in the wider community. At the turn of the century most were economically independent; living in the bush, on station land, or their own small farming blocks they found some degree of acceptance. By the early 1930s however they had been reduced to the status of second-class citizens subject to bursts of overt racism. This book examines the interconnected factors contributing to a bureaucratic process of pauperisation, institutionalisation and exclusion from the wider community with its associated effects on the Aborigines' status and their way of life.

This major work reveals the dark heart of the history of the Stolen Generations in Australia. It shows that, from the earliest times of European colonization, Aboriginal Australians experienced the trauma of loss and separation, as their children were abducted, enslaved, institutionalized, and culturally remodeled. Providing a moving and comprehensive account of this tragic history, this study covers all Australian colonies, states, and territories. The analysis spans 200 years of white occupation and intervention, from the earliest seizure of Aboriginal children, through their systematic state removal and incarceration, and on to the harsh treatment of families under the assimilation policies of the 1950s and 1960s. The resistance struggle and achievements of Aboriginal people in defending their communities, regaining their rights and mending the broken circles of family life provides a compelling parallel story of determination and courage.
