Deborah Bird Rose's paper takes up the challenge of our position in 'new world' settler societies and seeks a decolonising form of situated justice that brings reconciliation between settlers and Indigenous people together with reconciliation with nature. The paper examines a case study of a fight for a forest in New South Wales. It is a story of an Aboriginal sacred site, of reconciliation, and of alternatives to the status quo that exist in contested places such as forests. It shows us how to imagine alternative futures, and thus how we might work step by step toward decolonisation.
