This book chapter by UQ Professor Bronwyn Fredericks, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Engagement) and Dr Abraham Bradfield notes broad community debate over whether Australia’s colonial past and present should be celebrated through public monuments, statues, place names, and re-enactments. The UQ authors consider how colonial monuments in Cairns and Cooktown maintain white hegemonic discourses of colonisation, where coloniality is envisioned as ‘progress’ and ‘modernity’. They also discuss how monuments, statues and re-enactments function as sites of colonial resistance. .

Authored by UQ Professor Bronwyn Fredericks, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Engagement) and Dr Abraham Bradfield: Everywhere we look there are symbols and images that shape and reflect our understandings and responses to the world. Uniforms are such symbols, portraying messages about a person’s role, status, value, or political leanings. Uniforms have long been used in political activism and social movements/uprisings, quickly communicating that its members are part of a united front. This paper explores the importance of a uniformed response to the Uluru Statement of the Heart campaign. We consider how hearts have been used to unite supporters both physically and on social media. Digital icons, t-shirts, broaches, and jewellery all function as platforms through which to communicate the need for constitutional reform. In this paper, we argue that a constitutionally enshrined First Nations’ Voice to Parliament lies at the heart of the campaign, and discuss how supporters of the Uluru Statement are unform in their call for a referendum..
