Abstract

This paper examines construction of Aboriginal identity in the ongoing colonising environment of contemporary Australia. Australian Indigenous identity has been a struggle for equality and for recognition of cultural difference and has been forged as resistance under a colonising situation. The construction of identity is examined from an Australian perspective, where cultural survival, reclaiming and identity have become a priority.
