Bushfires film: Bruce Pascoe and Indigenous land and fire management

“Aboriginal people are no angels or saints or geniuses. We’ve just had a lot of time to look at the country and learn from her.”

In this insightful story Bruce Pascoe invites us to reflect on the lessons we can learn from thousands of years of Aboriginal land and fire management, especially as we face worsening climate damage.

Now more than ever we need to respect and listen to Traditional Owners. Please share this story & help promote the role of Indigenous land management.

This is the latest in the series of short films we have produced to tell the stories of the people and landscape impacted by Summer’s devastating firestorms. Watch our film about the Kuark Forest here and our film about ‘Bushy’ Bob Semmens the passionate bird watcher from Mallacoota here.
