Summary
"The story of a fallen man and his victims. At the centre of this book are the rape and assault charges brought against Geoff Clark, the former chairman of ATSIC. The book includes an account and analysis of the court case, interviews with the parties involved, and an analysis of the media response to the case. The book asks: what does this case tell us about who we are as a society today? Although indigenous issues will be a part of the book, this is not a general study of Aboriginal politics. Rather, it looks at issues in the community as they relate specifically to this case."--Provided by publisher.
