'In the context of Australian settler colonialism, as Aileen Moreton-Robinson has eloquently argued, possessive claims in relation to Indigenous people are central to the colonial project. Supporting these claims and benefiting from them are notions of belonging in the land. Who is the stranger and who the resident and therefore who has the right to claim the physical space? Across the nineteenth century and into the twentieth, Aboriginal performance practices for entertainment were used by both Aboriginal people and white settlers as a way of asserting claims of belonging to the land in the present moment.'
