3. Resistance © Education Services Australia Ltd and the National Museum of Australia, 2010, except where indicated otherwise To Indigenous people, however, this was their land where they had once lived under their own rules in their own ways.

4. xxx? Resistance © Education Services Australia Ltd and the National Museum of Australia, 2010, except where indicated otherwise The lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people were profoundly changed by the arrival of British colonists in 1788. Lives were lost and land was taken as the colonisers attempted to impose new social, economic and religious orders. New animals, plants and diseases were introduced. The question that every Indigenous person faced was: how do we react to this situation? R4024 Indigenous Australians defending their land, c1817. Reproduced courtesy of National Library of Australia.
