The men who survived Kinchela Boys Home
Manage episode 446379967 series 2535565
This week, a group of Stolen Generations survivors visited a site from their childhood that holds a lot of painful memories: the notorious Kinchela Aboriginal Boys Training Home in New South Wales.
The gathering marked 100 years since Kinchela was opened – a home that institutionalised hundreds of Indigenous boys, and subjected them to torture, abuse and reprogramming, in order to assimilate them into white society.
Now, the survivors and their families want to take ownership of the site, to make it a place of healing for future generations.
Today, Gunaikurnai and Wotjobaluk writer and contributor to The Saturday Paper Ben Abbatangelo on the enduring legacy of the Kinchela Boys Home.
