Book review: Farmers or Hunter-gatherers? The Dark Emu Debate rigorously critiques Bruce Pascoe's argument : Comments

By Christine Nicholls, published 15/6/2021

For many Australians, Pascoe's book is a 'must-read', speaking truth to power. For such readers, Dark Emu seems a breakthrough text. Not so, in Sutton and Walshe's estimation. Nor mine.

Obtained a copy of 'Farmers Or Hunter-Gatherers?' from the library. The early part of the book sees Peter Sutton establishing his "Aboriginality", congratulating himself on his ability to speak an indigenous language from the area around Cape York. I'm sure there will be more that relates to Bruce Pascoe and his 'Dark Emu' later on.
