Chat Salon: First Nations History with Madison Shakespeare

The Australian Aboriginal people are the oldest known civilization on Earth with ancestries stretching back over 70,000 years. Their history has been handed down in ways of stories, dances, myths and legends. Meet Indigenous Studies lecturer, Madison Shakespeare, to learn her insights into this ancient world and find ways to approach respectful research when writing narratives encompassing First Nations’ history.
