SUMMARY:Genocide in the Wildflower State @Calgary Justice Film Festival (CJFF)
DESCRIPTION:This is a documentary about a violent\, state-run system of eugenics\, racial absorption\, and social assimilation in Twentieth Century\, Western Australia. For the more than six decades between 1905 and 1972\, thousands of mixed-race Aboriginal children in Western Australia were forcibly removed from their families. \nSystematically organized by the State\, overwhelmingly supported by West Australian society\, generation after generation\, for over sixty years\, the State worked to destroy Aboriginal families\, culture\, and language\, for the purpose of securing white\, settler dominance. \nCULTURE IN ACTION: This year marks the inaugural year of CJFF’s Culture in Action initiative\, filling The Confluence with art and performance for all three days of the festival. We invite you to arrive early and stay late to experience the full CJFF experience that brings justice stories to life.
