What is Nation Building and why should Indigenous People do it?
We all hear the different statistics about First Nations People in Australia. About the intentions to “Close the Gap” between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. These targets are not being reached.
Bernard discusses why these are critical issues and how his contributions in the animation and digital space can play a part in Wiradyuri Nation building so that his people can have a voice towards closing these gaps. Bernard Higgins is a proud Wiradyuri man who was born in Wagga Wagga and raised in Leeton. Both sides of Bernard’s family are Wiradyuri; his father’s family is originally from the Narrandera and Leeton area, while his mother’s family hails from the Euabalong region.
Bernard combined his two greatest passions, sciences and creative arts, graduating with a Bachelor of Animation and Visual Effects as well as a Bachelor of Science (First Class Honours). Merging these skills with his Wiradyuri culture, strengthened by completing a Graduate Certificate in Wiradyuri Language, Culture, and History, Bernard now creates animations and films in Wiradyuri language. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
