When a young girl is murdered at the hands of one of her male contemporaries, what is the aftermath? How will her friends cope? How can such violence be understood?

TeatroGLEN reads an assignment in a Year 11 classroom.
GLEN: ââŠYoung girls could be taken away from their homes, and put into orphanages, even though they werenât orphans. Theyâd be given a low-grade version of a white girlâs education. Then theyâd be sent out to work on stations, or in white peopleâs houses in country towns. The excuse for this was that their own families couldnât bring them up properly to make a place in white Australia. So young Aboriginal women were made into servants. They were separated from their own culture and its traditions. And they were conditioned to think they were the lowest of the low⊠black, female and unskilled in a white manâs world.â
Iâve got some slides. I photographed some stuff from a few books.
TEACHER: Good, Glen. Go ahead.
STUDENT: Spock.
GLEN: Iâll just set up the projector.
