Abstract

This chapter critically considers “carceral feminism”—that seeks to save Indigenous women through a mainstream (often imported) punitive machinery directed to Indigenous men—as having limited application to the lived experiences of Indigenous women. A focus of this chapter is family violence in remote communities and its discursive instrumentality in implicating both Aboriginal men and women. This chapter points to colonisation as an ongoing experience for Indigenous women who face subjugation, oppression and surveillance across the various “camps” that render their existence “bare life”. It points to the killing of Ms Dhu in police custody as a pinnacle of this treatment. Finally, it illustrates place-centred healing approaches that Indigenous women have developed to strengthen one-another in the face of patriarchal colonialism.

Fußnoten
1
In remote communities, Indigenous women are hospitalised for family violence at 53 times the rate of non-Indigenous women (DPMC 2017, 95).
 
2
Their coercive powers have included both penal and welfare policy arms exercised in a discriminatory fashion (e.g. child protection and social security coming within this ambit). Family violence is a discourse to justify child welfare authorities taking Indigenous women’s babies and placing them in out-of-home care (e.g. Wright and Cashmore 2018; see critique by Sherwood 2015).
 
3
This includes white micro-solidarities in health care. Aboriginal health scholars Chelsea Bond and Juanita Sherwood have commented that it is not uncommon for Aboriginal women and Aboriginal mothers to be regarded by multiple agencies as problems who are unworthy of health screening and healthcare (in Behrendt 2019). Such perceptions in the health and allied systems contributed to the death of pregnant Wiradjuri woman Naomi Williams and her unborn baby (see Dunlop 2019a, b).
