- Gloria Dindina Rogers -
Aboriginal Elder
Auntie Gloria, as she is called out of respect, is a Wiradyuri Community elder who has been endorsed to act and speak on behalf of her Bathurst Community.
She is a clan elder who has worked extensively within Corrective Services NSW at Bathurst, Kirkconnell and Lithgow gaols. She teaches culture at local schools and does welcomes and warmings at Charles Sturt University Bathurst Campus and within her community.
Auntie Gloria will talk about Wiradyuri culture, beliefs and spirituality.
Our western culture is barely 2000 years old and showing signs that it is not supporting humanity effectively. Aboriginal culture has endured more tham 40,000 years.
I find it fascinationg that we can get a chance to learn from a culture that has respected, supported and nurtured its people sucessfully for so long.
Should be a very interresting and informative talk, se you there. |
