Counter-Narratives of Empire and the 'Oceania' Exhibition
'Stolen', 'plundered' and 'more than art'. Meg Foster looks at the living spiritual and cultural meanings of 'objects' featured in the Oceania exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts.
OTD 1779, Captain Cook was killed by Hawaiians as he attempted to kidnap their King. โ๐
A throwback to Meg Foster's @mfoster-history.bsky.social piece reflecting on the adhoc counter-narratives by Indigenous visitors to the Oceania exhibition in 2019:

Sam Poo: A Chinese bushranger? - ABC listen
It's 1865 in remote central west NSW. A police office is fatally shot by a man he believes is a Chinese bushranger. The story of Sam Poo is a bushranging tale with a twist
As part of my ABC media residency, I got to work with the wonderful History Listen (now 'Rewind') team on an episode about Sam Poo. Interviewing, writing and narrating a podcast was hard work but a super rewarding experience. I hope you enjoy the final product! www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...
