Karajarri Nyangumarta man Stephen Stewart has defied all the odds to keep his culture alive for more than a century.
But Mr Stewart said he remembered engraving his name as a youngster when he began droving cattle on the Canning Stock Route, possibly when he was about six."It was wild country back then … [we were] proper bushmen. The island, which was used as a jail until 1904 and a forced labour camp until 1931, claimed more than 370 Aboriginal lives.

So many emotions reading this. Respect, sadness, anger. So much history and culture deserving of acknowledgment and protection. What a remarkable man.
Amazing.
