Welcome everyone to my very first blog ever! I think I'll have a lot of fun with this...
I chose this course to learn about Australia's cultural history of course, but I was particularly excited to learn about Indigenous and Westerner interaction and manipulation of the environment around them, starting from pre-settlement and up to current day. My goal for this blog is to share this interest to the class via photos, articles, videos, and other media in an attempt to form a comprehensive history on land destruction and alteration within Australian borders, and how specific events may cause or have been causing hardships for Indigenous peoples and settlers alike. All the while, I will attempt competent commentary on my findings, and look forward to expressing my theme in responses to other classmates posts.
Also, I realize the title is both lengthy and uncharismatic! So I will look into adjusting that soon.
Cheers!
Calvin
