Journal Entry 4 by AnonymousFriend at Templestowe, Victoria Australia on Friday, January 6, 2017
An autographed copy of a sympathetic account by the white wife of an Indigenous man honouring his family and their practices and sharing their pain. John Moriarty was one of the “Stolen Generation” who had been taken from his family and homeland when he was four. More fortunate than most, he later re-established contact with his family. When he and Ros married, they travelled with their infant son to his home country near Borroloola, in North Australia near the Carpentaria Gulf. For over twenty-five years, they kept returning there whenever they were able. Ros came to feel accepted as John’s wife and even was allowed to be a participant in a week of women’s rituals, known as the Law. Stories of her time during that week are interwoven with her and John’s personal histories and the histories of his Yanyuwah people.
