National Child Protection Clearinghouse. Australian Institute of Family Studies. (2002). Child Abuse and Family Violence in Aboriginal Communities - Exploring Child Sexual Abuse in Western Australia. 88 p. "Within the Australian Indigenous community, family violence is commonly used as a broad term, encompassing all forms of violence between members of a kinship group or the immediate community. Concomitantly, abuse of Indigenous children, and particularly sexual abuse, is generally viewed as a community issue, rather than within the narrower nuclear family context used in the non-Indigenous community. The two bodies of knowledge (child abuse within the Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities) also differ in terms of their 'ways of knowing' - knowledge on Indigenous issues frequently coming from personal experience."

Powell, A. (1886). The Moral Elevation of Girls. In Philanthropist, 1 (February 1886), pp. 5-6. In this article, Powell especially emphasized the importance of well-to-do "ladies" providing examples to working women to help them resist the temptations that purity reformers believed went hand-in-hand with working in factories and department stores. This emphasis highlighted the class aspects of both purity reform and the age-of-consent campaign--daughters who did not go out to work, reformers believed, remained protected within their families. Working women were preyed upon by seducers, often their employers, supervisors, or customers. http://womhist.binghamton.edu/aoc/doc2.htm |
