Scope and content

Pamphlet detailing the history of white colonialist violence and displacement of Aboriginal Australians in Queensland, and how Aboriginal Australians continue to face inequitable treatment and discrimination. The pamphlet uses this history as a framework to contextualise contemporary activism, specifically the Aboriginal Tent Embassy, and requests those interested in participating in the Embassy to contact the Black Rights Committee. Undated, but is assumed to be from 1972, as the Aboriginal Tent Embassy is spoken of as a current event.
