      Transformational Pastoral Leadership
    • Exploring the intersection of pornography and colonialism, this work analyzes how sexual representation reinforces settler colonial narratives, particularly in the contexts of America and Australia. It delves into the ways pornography perpetuates notions of whiteness, pleasure, and the marginalization of Indigenous identities, highlighting the neocolonial implications embedded within these portrayals. Through this lens, the book critiques the cultural and political ramifications of these representations on Indigenous communities.
