ABSTRACT This article presents a messy social science research method that integrates art therapy tools and Indigenous yarning – a concept loosely translated as complex conversational storytelling. The method – Art Yarning – is an innovative research tool that mirrors and responds to the complex social and research realities in interactions between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people and researchers in Australia. Drawing on collaborative research with Indigenous communities on Gunditjmara and Wathaurong Countries in Victoria, I present and discuss Art Yarning as a ‘messy’ method (Law 2004): that is, as shifting, uncertain, slow, modest, and diverse, only capable of delivering situated, incomplete, temporary knowledge – a valuable, humbling position that recognises and respects boundaries around Indigenous knowledges. Art Yarning prioritises Indigenous and visual ways of knowing and challenges the problematic conviction that any social science method can deliver complete, single-source knowledge. Art Yarning enhanced participants’ sense of Indigenous identities, healing, and non-Indigenous participants’ adaptation to aspects of Indigenous ways of knowing-being-doing (Martin 2003). Rich multilayered new knowledge was achieved via processes that reduce power imbalance in research. Critically, the integrated method facilitates learning from, rather than learning about, Indigenous peoples in social science research.

ABSTRACT In this article, we explore the diversity, histories, and social experiences of migrant youth in Melbourne and Toronto and how they negotiate difference and otherness in their everyday lives. By moving away from the tensions and problems that have often been associated with migration and diversity, we explore how migrant youth’s engagement with multiple cultural systems does in fact engender empathy as a valuable form of transcultural capital. As such, we highlight individual agency in negotiating difference in ways that enable migrant youth to understand and accept ‘the otherness of others’ from a critical, self-reflexive stance. In a context of an increasingly interconnected, diverse, but yet unequal world, this ability of migrant youth to navigate and negotiate difference and nurture empathy is not only an important contribution to the practice and labour of living together, but also to an ever more valuable transcultural ethos and practical orientation that should be valued, fostered, and mobilised.

ABSTRACT The emergence of the alt-right in the US since 2008 has been widely documented but its international impacts have received less attention. Located in the context of the 2019 Christchurch massacre of 51 people by an Australian alt-right influenced gunman and based in analysis of two Australian forums, XYZ.net.au and #DingoTwitter, this article investigates the transnational spread of alt-right discourse in the context of the platformisation of extremism. Through historical and content analysis of the sites, the paper shows how key alt-right ideologies of ‘white replacement’ and ‘white genocide’, along with anti-Semitic and misogynist ideologies, are adapted to local contexts by alt-right influenced actors. Platform logics, it is argued, provide new possibilities for the mutation and spread of ‘translocal whiteness’ and for the deployment of alt-right ‘metapolitical’ strategies that seek to normalise racist discourse.

ABSTRACT Food, a result of local production and consumption, influences by culture, race, and ethnicity. It provides multisensory experiences that can be observed, expressed, smelled, tasted, and touched. However, this study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the batik industry and its practitioners in Sangiran Regency. Batik, an historic fabric of Indonesia, is an integral part of Sangiran, an Indonesian World Heritage site highlighting its origins. Drawing on the theory of Briggs (2005. The use of indigenous knowledge in development: Problems and challenges. Progress in Development Studies, 5 (2), 99–114) on indigenous knowledge, this field note explores the significance of batik filling, specifically within the daily lives of batik crafters. This study, conducted in Indonesia, has provided valuable insights from the perspectives of these individuals. Through a three-month ethnographic work, it was discovered that batik filling symbolizes not only an artistic element but also the culinary traditions of the Javanese community. Additionally, it emphasizes the pivotal role of pengobeng, who are predominantly women, in forming a profound connection to daily life through their memories. The results showed that batik filling serves as a medium for food nostalgia in women, asserting their presence and importance within the batik industry.
