摘要

档案中躺着我们过去的故事,那些在知情或不知情的情况下生活在我们现在的故事。对于原住民家庭来说,寻找记录可以成为治愈创伤的重要来源,增强和确认身份,并让家庭对事情的发展有新的理解。这篇文章为原住民家庭提供了一个代理,让他们可以查阅档案,了解他们的故事,阅读历史文件,并以自己的方式讲述他们的故事。通过家庭记忆、反思和档案研究,它通过Mabel Ita Eatts(弗雷德里克饰)的经历,传递了一个第一民族家庭的微观历史,充满了感情。梅布尔是“被偷走的一代”的成员,后来深受豁免政策的影响。她的故事生动地展现了20世纪20年代和30年代居住在布鲁姆和德比的土著“半种姓”妇女所面临的斗争,明确强调了这项政策所表达的侵略性压迫,更重要的是,梅布尔是如何积极协商这一制度的。这篇论文是一个强有力的例子,说明了一个土著家庭是如何向殖民档案馆回信的。

Married to a ‘British Subject’

In the archives lie the stories of our past, stories that knowingly or unknowingly live in our present. For Aboriginal families, finding records can be a critical source of great healing, enhance and affirm identity, and provide families with new understandings of how things came to be. This essay affords agency to First Nations families looking to the archives for their stories, reading historical documents against the grain, and telling their stories their way. Through family memory, reflection, and archival research, it delivers the microhistory, rich in feeling, of one First Nations family, through the experiences of Mabel Ita Eatts (née Frederick), an ancestral matriarch, a Jaru woman, and the Great Grandmother of the author. Mabel was a member of the Stolen Generations and was later deeply influenced by exemption policy. Her story brings to life the struggles faced by Aboriginal ‘half-caste’ women living in Broome and Derby in the 1920s and 1930s, explicitly highlighting not only the invasive oppression expressed through this policy but, more importantly, how Mabel actively negotiated the system. This paper is a powerful example of how one Aboriginal family writes back to the colonising archive.
