Remembering one of the darkest chapters in Australian history

from First Nations First

This is the legacy of Rottnest Island, now a popular tourist destination off the coast of Perth - thousands of First Nations men and boys sent to suffer or die on a prison island in horrific circumstances. Descendants of those who were imprisoned there have now come together to commemorate the island's traumatic past and celebrate the resilience of their people.
