For the Indigenous people of Australia, song, dance and music have encoded their history and religion, their social organisation, and their connectedness to the land. An outline of the evolution of Aboriginal country and western and rock music situates the discussion within an historical context in which music has been expressive of Aboriginal peoples' political struggles and in particular the love of and connection to, and loss and reclamation of their land.

Examines contemporary songs by Australian indigenous women and songs about them by Australian indigenous men. An outline of the evolution of Aboriginal rock music situates the discussion within an historical context in which music has been expressive of Aboriginal peoples' political struggles. Using the lyrics of Aboriginal rock music as texts, the author identifies some broad categories of men's and women's songs and considers gender's relevance to race and racism and Aboriginal women's survival of colonialism.
