'In the public imagining, many equate Tasmania (Lutruwita) with Truganini – the ‘last Tasmanian Aboriginal’. This narrative of the last Tasmanian is a deliberate one, engineered by the colonial project, to lay claim to the truth. The undeniable and true history of genocide in Lutruwita is not to be conflated with the total extinction of its first peoples. To do so erases First Nations existence and survival in Lutruwita – literally.' (Introduction)
