This chapter seeks to address questions of ‘epistemic injustice’ (Fricker, 2007), ‘epistemic positioning’ (Bacevic, 2021), and ‘disciplinary decadence’ (Gordon, 2015) in criminology by meaningfully engaging with the criminological knowledge produced by Indigenous activists and scholars. More specifically, this chapter explores the significant, and yet undervalued, contributions Indigenous Australians have made to criminological theory. It does so by focusing primarily on the scholarship of Indigenous women who have found themselves marginalised through the intersectional experience of Indigeneity and patriarchy. What is more, this chapter discusses forms of restorative knowledge production which might just help address the ways in which Indigenous criminological scholarship has been ‘bounded’ and ‘domained’ (Bacevic, 2021) within mainstream criminology, concluding that taking Indigenous knowledge and experience seriously might just be a key step towards dismantling the gates and fences which control and permit entry to criminology in the academy.
