The Struggle for Aboriginal Rights is the first book of its kind.
Not only does it tell the history of the political struggle for
Aboriginal rights in all parts of Australia; it does so almost
entirely through a selection of historical documents created by the
Aboriginal campaigners themselves, many of which have never been
published. It presents Aboriginal perspectives of their
dispossession and their long and continuing fight to overcome this.
In charting the story of Aboriginal political activity from its
beginnings on Flinders Island in the 1830s to the fight over native
title today, this book aims to help Australians better understand
both the continuities and the changes in Aboriginal politics over
the last 150 years: in the leadership of the Aboriginal political
struggle, the objectives of these campaigners for rights for
Aborigines, their aspirations, the sources of their programmes for
change, their methods of protest, and the outcomes of their
protest. Through the words of Aboriginal activists, across 150
years, The Struggle for Aboriginal Rights charts the relationship
between political involvement and Aboriginal identity.
