By 2001, in federal court, the women were vindicated as truth-tellers. Petty politics, procrastinations and prevarications stand in the way of its realisation. The Apology to the Stolen Generations in 2008 and its evocation of an inclusive us” has propelled the Ngarrindjeri on the path to practical reconciliation”.

She is also candid about the voices she would like to have represented and could not, those of the dissident women. For me the most valuable section of the book was its re-reading of early a. This book is about the big issues A Customer Ngarrindjeri Wurruwarrin is about big issues like the quality of justice enjoyed by Indigenous peoples and what sort of society we want to be. It is about the particulars of Hindmarsh Island and the writing of ethnography in the southeast. It is about anthropologists and anthropology. It is about the politics of knowledge in an oral culture and those of a print-oriented one. It is about women who insist on being authors of their own lives. And it is about belief, dissent, story-telling and story tellers.
