ABSTRACT
In the twenty-first century, Australia stands on the threshold of an opportunity to embrace the robustness, the connectedness and the spirituality of the oldest living culture in a modern world. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australia comprises living cultures from the point of view of Indigenous Australians. People live diverse lifestyles in a range of urban, rural and remote communities. Vibe Australia Pty Ltd is an Aboriginal multimedia and events management company focused on getting the right messages to Indigenous people, especially youth. Every month, Deadly Vibe spotlights achievers in music, entertainment and sports, a mix of social issues and a big focus on education. Colonial history is full of land-use conflicts. Aboriginal fishermen had nets with a large mesh; this allowed small fish to swim through the big mesh. They took only what was needed for the day. English fishermen, with their small-mesh nets, caught all sorts of small fish and left them to rot on the sand.
