Drawing from the Indigenous Australian context, this paper reflects upon the theme of ‘Indigenous human flourishing’ and the (in)capabilities of the academy to see us as both human and healthy. It takes as its focus the Indigenous scholar, not as student but as activist, and considers the necessary weaponry for recovering and reclaiming our humanity and what it is to be healthy.
