Greetings,

I just want to express my great happiness and respect for Raymattja Marika
(Yolngu) for her honorary award!  I had the privilege of meeting her at the
Indigenous Languages Conference in Adelaiade, Australia this past month.

I highly recommend reading her prestigious 1998 Wentworth lecture (below).
Raymattja Marika, Wentworth Lecture 1998

AIATSIS Library, S06.1/AIAS/10 1999 no1, p.3-9
“The 1998 Wentworth Lecture” paper presented at the Wentworth Lecture.
