Funded Activity Summary

Seeing the Black Child. This project aims to provide a deep understanding of the manner in which Black (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, African and Afro-diasporic) people understand their children’s situation. While dominant conceptions of childhood are typically assumed to be universal, they generally take the figure of the white child, emerging out of a predominantly European body of knowledge, as paradigmatic. This project seeks to expand, reconfigure and present a more complex understanding of childhood, one which more adequately reflects Australia today. It is thereby expected to contribute to the work of ensuring that as befits a just, plural society, those whose roles relate to children have an inclusive rather than a parochial grasp of childhood.
