Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHEN THE VAMPIRE PRINCESS GOES MISSING, ALL OF LAC'AROON WILL PAY THE PRICE. Chimera delicately sat in a vacant chair and crossed her legs, all the while maintaining her grip on Lokeys arm. Lokeys fingers were starting to lose their feeling and her shoulders ached. My friends here thought I needed a broader education than my Queen Aunt could or would provide me. So, Lokey here drugged me, stole a horse, and kidnapped me. The Major winked handsomely at Lokey. Nice friends. Lokey hissed back. We caught a ship to Telt, were assaulted by Bartholomeu Roberts and Edvard Teach in Bahaba Delta, converted a captain and were chased from the forest outside of Goldavia by The Queen's minions. Chimera leaned forward with the flow of her tale. I am told that humans here have worth beyond the quality of their blood. I am here to learn what that means and decide if that is more or less important than the vampire purist education I received at Kimilt.
Download or read book Made to Matter written by Fiona Probyn-Rapsey and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most members of the Stolen Generations had white fathers or grandfathers. Who were these white men? This book analyses the stories of white fathers, men who were positioned as key players in the plans to assimilate Aboriginal people by 'breeding out the colour'. The plan to 'breed out the colour' ascribed enormous power to white sperm and white paternity; to 'elevate', 'uplift' and disperse Aboriginality in whiteness, to blank out, to aid cultural forgetting. The policy was a cruel failure, not least because it conflated skin colour with culture and assumed that Aboriginal women and their children would acquiesce to produce 'future whites'. It also assumed that white men would comply as ready appendages, administering 'whiteness' through marriage or white sperm. This book attempts to put textual flesh on the bodies of these white fathers, and in doing so, builds on and complicates the view of white fathers in this history, and the histories of whiteness to which they are biopolitically related.
