Singing Our One True Heart

This project has captured and celebrated the personal journeys and experiences of 16 people with a connection to the Gay and Lesbian Singers of WA. In doing so it has shown how enriching, supportive and often indispensable the choir has been for those who are a part of it. The project culminated in the exhibition of photography and written stories of the individuals involved, together with the first air of our short documentary, Singing For Our True Heart, produced, co-written and co-directed by Know Your Nation. The film has gone on to appear in independent film festivals.

King’s Seal

In the circle of life - birth, survival and death, Aboriginal people have a network of sites and tracks, embedded in the land, that connect them to all things and enable them to practice their laws, traditions and beliefs. Colonisation in Australia, denied Aboriginal people access to their land - breaking the life cycle for Aboriginal people. The Free-Settler Colony of South Australia was going to be different. King William IV recognised the continued rights to land for Aboriginal people in South Australia's founding document, the Letters Patent, in Feb 1836. The first ever Aboriginal rights granted in Australia's colonial history. Rights to the land, to occupy and enjoy their land for always, enshrined in law by the King's seal. What actually occurred in South Australia after colonisation in 1836 was treason. The King's Letters Patent was disobeyed and Aboriginal rights that were granted, to occupy and enjoy their land, were denied.
