Tonia Chalk (BA (Creative), BA (Hons), B.Ed.) is a Budjari woman from Southwest Queensland. She is a PhD candidate at Griffith University, Nathan Campus in the School of Humanities, Languages, and Social Science. Her PhD examines eleven inquests of death files of Aboriginal females that occurred during the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Queensland, through the lens of the file's discursive practices and colonial references. By viewing the coronial inquest file not only as a government document but also as a space for multiple narratives and voices, the project provides a new way of thinking about inquests in Queensland, and about the archival record in Aboriginal family stories, including my Aboriginal family. She is a Lecturer in the School of Education at the University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba, and a First Nations archivist.
