In recognition of the The Australian War’s immense educational value, Blackfella Films and SBS Learn are collaborating with Culture Is Life to publish curriculum-aligned education resources about the frontier conflicts. The resources will analyse the documentary using short clips that explore the ongoing impacts of colonisation and highlight historical perspectives. The resources will also provide an insight into the immense value that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander oral histories possess, with a focus on local history and how schools can engage with their local communities for further learning opportunities. New classroom-ready clips will launch each week as each episode premieres and will be published on sbs.com.au/learn. #TheAustralianWars @sbs_australia @nitv_au @sharkislandinstitute Repost via SBS When we tell stories of war, rarely do we talk about the wars fought on Australian soil. Across this continent, thousands of people lost their lives in the longest-running conflict in Australian history; the Frontier Wars. Arrernte and Kalkadoon woman and Director & Presenter Rachel Perkins journeys across the continent to explore the breadth of warfare, strategy, and forceful resistance that occurred. The Australian Wars | Premieres September 21 at 7.30pm on SBS and NITV

Today we celebrate the International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples. This year’s theme is “The Role of Indigenous Women in the Preservation and Transmission of Traditional Knowledge”. We want to take this moment to honour our matriarchs, who have played a vital role in continuing culture, standing strong for our mob and healing family and community to bring about a brighter future for our young people 🖤 📸 Pictured here is Alkina Edwards of @alkinascreations with her Mother and Aunties on Yorta Yorta country, for the Winyarr Collection in collaboration with #CultureIsLife and @wittnershoes #WeAreIndigenous #IndigenousDay #IndigenousPeoplesDay #UNDRIP
