Immersive Connection to Country Experience with Jade Brook, a Adjahdura/Narungga and Kaurna woman
Adelaide Law School's HDR Reps, Madeleine Perrett and Frankie Bray, hosted an Immersive Connection to Country Experience with Jade Brook, a proud Adjahdura/Narungga and Kaurna woman with deep roots across several South Australian communities through her maternal bloodlines.
Her grandmother, Marjorie Beare-Angie was a formidable figure who contributed significantly to their community, while through her English bloodline, her great-great-great-grandfather helped draft part of the Constitution regarding education.
Jade's heritage, encompassing strong family ties and cultural identity, shapes her current endeavours and commitment to First Nations advocacy.
Attendees engaged in an outdoor connection to Country, an art activity where Jade shared her knowledge with us about Aboriginal signs and symbols. Jade also shared her story about Tiwu and personal reflections on themes of power imbalances, racism and power.
We are extremely grateful to Jade for sharing her knowledge and reflections with us.
