No Customer Reviews
This book features the sparkling work of Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and Māori narrative therapists and community workers. From conversations with children in Tenant Creek on Warumungu Country; to visual ways of reconnecting with cultural knowledge; to straight talk within prisons; to strong sistas boxing their way to health; Aboriginal men meeting in Didjeri groups under the Story Bridge; feminist ways of thwarting shame; undercover leadership projects, and much more This book illustrates the diverse, creative and hopeful ways that First Nations practitioners are 'yarning with a purpose'. As Tileah Drahm-Butler declares in the foreword: 'The projects in this book describe our peoples' resistance in ways which are hopeful, intentional and inspiring'. Tileah also describes this book as a call to action - to continue to work towards decolonising therapy. The authors of papers in this book are First Nations graduates of the Master of Narrative Therapy and Community Work, University of Melbourne.
