Prof Clive Moore is an Emeritus Professor at the University of Queensland with three decades of experience researching Pacific Islander and South Sea Islander history. He joins Amy McQuire to continue our series on “The Forgotten Queenslanders”. He talks about the history of blackbirding, how it was ‘akin to slavery’, the attempt at mass deportation of South Sea Islanders following Federation and the discrimination felt by South Sea Islander descendants.
