    About this ebook

    On Rage is Germaine Greer’s enduring essay about Aboriginal dispossession. With characteristic acuity and passion, Greer looks to the causes of rage and its consequences in Indigenous Australian men.

    Originally published six months after Prime Minister Kevin Rudd’s Apology to the Stolen Generations in 2008, this is an urgent and provocative examination of disempowerment by one of Australia’s leading polemicists.

      Germaine Greer is always controversial and I admire her tenacity to always speak her mind. Here in this small book she confronts 'rage' in particular, that emotion that is endemic within Australian aboriginal males. She explores suicide, alcohol abuse, spousal abuse and how rage is a direct result of self loathing and how it expresses itself in hostility. She is particularly scathing of the 'whities'. In concluding her essay she suggests "an annual ' angry' day, when Whitey would get reminded of just what he has done for Australia."
