Abstract
Where to point the spears? Let me warn you that I do not for one moment believe that the Indigenous people of Australia are standing around right now, wondering where to aim their spears. The art of the hunt-the skill of locating the target, aiming and firing spears metaphorically speaking-was the core activity of our political strategy against the broad scale attack on Indigenous rights by Australian governments throughout the last decades of the twentieth century.
