Title: The white man's burden: Patriarchal white epistemic violence and Aboriginal women's knowledges within the academy
Other Titles: Australian Feminist Studies
Authors: Moreton-Robinson, A
Year: 2011
Citation: Vol. 26, no. 70
Notes:  In this article I reveal how texts produced by Aboriginal women scholars signify a racialised and gendered body that functions discursively, as an immediacy of racism in the form of white patriarchal epistemic violence (Lloyd 1991, 74). I demonstrate how this dominant racialised and gendered form of violence is an assertion of power that involves or arises from racialised knowledge by examining Dirk Moses' analysis of 'Indigeneity' via the Northern Territory Intervention (Spivak 1988). © 2011 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
