The $5 bill previously hosted the likeness of Queen Elizabeth II, but the central bank announced it would not be replacing her image with King Charles III. Instead it plans to highlight Indigenous culture and design on the notes.

The new $5 will have a design on the front side that honors “the culture and history of the First Australians,” and the back side will “continue to feature the Australian parliament,” according to the bank’s statement.

Australia’s Indigenous population, often called First Nations people, is comprised of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, who are “descendants of the world’s oldest continuous culture who have occupied the continent for 65,000 years. “This is a massive win for the grassroots, First Nations people who have been fighting to decolonise this country,” tweeted Greens Sen. Lidia Thorpe, who is a DjabWurrung Gunnai Gunditjmara woman. Source: CNBC (link in bio) #australia #indigenous #firstnation https://www.instagram.com/p/CoUyKMELhRh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Making the Carry: The Lives of John and Tchi-Ki-Wis Linklater

Timothy Cochrane’s Making the Carry chronicles the lives and labors of John (Métis) and Tchi-Ki-Wis (Anishinaabeg/Lac La Croix First Nation) Linklater as they made a place for themselves and their kin in the borderlands between the United States and Canada known as the “Boundary Waters” at the turn of the 20th century. To tell this story, Cochrane draws from a Sigurd Olson essay in which the famed conservationist saw Indigenous peoples who were “making the carry,” or migrating across the land (1). For Cochrane, “making the carry” epitomizes the Linklaters’ lives. John's work as a wilderness guide, game warden, and more, coupled with Tchi-Ki-Wis’s skill as a weaver and artisan, allowed both to draw from their traditional ecological knowledge to guide elite visitors through their homelands, carrying traditions from the past into the present. Perhaps the most important “carry” the Linklaters made, however, was their ability to reach “across cultures to further understanding” (28).
