Amid tremendous controversy, seven were hanged. Myall Creek was not the last time the colonial administration sought to apply the law equally to Aboriginal people and settlers, but it was the last time perpetrators of a massacre were convicted and hanged.Marking its 180th anniversary, this book explores the significance of one of the most horrifying events of Australian colonialism. Thoughtful and fearless, it challenges us to look at our history without flinching as an act of remembrance and reconciliation. 588 0 Print version record. 600 10 Fleming, John Henry. 650 0 Massacres|zAustralia|zMyall Creek (N.S.W.) 650 0 Aboriginal Australians|zAustralia|zMyall Creek (N.S.W.) |xHistory|y19th century. 650 0 Aboriginal Australians|xTreatment|zAustralia|zMyall Creek (N.S.W.) 650 0 Aboriginal Australians, Treatment of|zAustralia|zMyall Creek (N.S.W.) 650 0 Aboriginal Australians. 650 0 Myall Creek Massacre, 1838. 650 7 HISTORY / Australia & New Zealand.|2bisacsh 651 0 Myall Creek (N.S.W.)|xHistory. 651 0 Australia|xHistory|y1788-1851. 651 0 Myall Creek (N.S.W.)|xHistory|y1788-1851. 651 0 Australia|xHistory|y19th century. 651 0 Myall Creek (N.S.W.)|xHistory|y19th century. 651 0 New South Wales|xHistory|y19th century. 655 0 Electronic books. 700 1 Ryan, Lyndall,|d1943-|eeditor. 700 1 Lydon, Jane,|d1965-|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tRemembering the Myall Creek massacre. |dSydney, NSW : NewSouth Publishing, 2018.|z9781742235752 (paperback)|w(OCoLC)1022779451 914 frd00026222
