02.01.2022 Come along to the Humphries Reconciliation Project Book Launch at 3:15pm on Wednesday 2nd of December at Perth Waldorf School! In 1995, precious video recordings were made of one of the last fluent Noongar speakers in the world, Elder Cliff Humphries, sharing ancient Noongar Dreamtime stories interwoven with song. His collection of historic materials formed part of the Bennell v State of WA (2006) case securing native title for the Noongar nation. The collection has remained ...in restricted access archive in the Battye Library of West Australian Historyuntil now. Working with the students at the Perth Waldorf School in an unprecedented Noongar reconciliation project, the family of Elder Humphries has begun the process of having these stories beautifully illustrated and published to share with the Noongar and wider community. The first of these stories, Aalidja Maali Yok Birrla-ngat Kor-iddny (Swan Woman Returns to her River) will be shared with the community at a historic book launch at the Perth Waldorf School next month. It is a rich story filled with spiritual meaning and deep morals. The launch will feature the archival recording, so the community can watch Elder Cliff Humphries tell the story as they read along.
