BlakOut: An Anthology of First Nations Students' Scholarship

In March 2023, the SUPRA Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Network launched the first issue of a new journal titled BlakOut: An Anthology of First Nations Students’ Scholarship.

BlakOut is a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal. This edition contains the work of five deadly student scholars from across the University of Sydney. BlakOut is funded by and proudly supported by SUPRA and the SUPRA Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Network. 

The journal is available to download digitally, and a limited number of printed copies are available.

Contact indigenous@supra.usyd.edu.au to submit to future issues of BlakOut.

Please note that this publication contains the names and images of people who have died.

We acknowledge the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation as the Traditional Custodians of this land.

We pay respect to Elders, both past and present, and extend that respect to all First Nations Peoples.

We acknowledge that the land upon which we meet is stolen land, and that sovereignty was never ceded.

This is, was and always will be Aboriginal land.
