In Conversation with Uncle Lewis: Bushfires, weather-makers, collective management
Indigenous knowledge in relation to bushfires has been largely overlooked in Australia. In this paper Uncle Lewis O'Brien, Kaurna elder and Chief Investigator of the Australian Research Council (ARC) project Indigenous Knowledge: Water Sustainability and Wild Fire Mitigation, is “yarning” or in conversation with Irene Watson. The ARC project is working towards positioning an Indigenous philosophical standpoint that will bring a greater focus to Indigenous understandings of our natural world and the relationship between humans and the natural world, particularly in an era of climate change. In this conversation Uncle Lewis O'Brien points to the limitations of Western understandings of environmental management—and in particular the prevention of bushfires—from an Indigenous knowledges standpoint. It is a conversation about the philosophical positions Indigenous peoples have also deployed in our struggle to outlive colonialism, while also remaining open to sharing Indigenous knowledges that have been shared amongst First Nations for thousands of years. </jats:p

Old Grant Come Down
(fragment)
"This old song I heard when I was a child; I grew up down in East Texas;
there was a lot of old rebel soldiers there, and it was a rebel song; and
all that I remember about it is:
Old Grant come down and begun to look around;
Every tooth in his head begun to rattle;
Swore to his soul that the bushes full of rebels
And he'd get away before the battle.Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation
