Text Content or SSML code:

By exploring the largely untold Aboriginal version of events in the interactive multi modal text k'gari, authors Fiona Foley and Larissa Behrendt debunk one of Australia's first fake news stories. In particular, this can be seen when the use of technology and interaction with the text reframes the story, as the user is required to reject and destroy Eliza's false account. The truth about the Butchalla people unravels from Eliza's lies, which can be seen during the text when you are required to move your mouse to wash away a wave over her lies and bring forward the truth. This text was developed in partnership with Reconciliation Australia and invites people to engage with the K'gari interactive and SBS Learn resources.
