Typescript, 3 leaves, with some handwritten emendations; titled 'Thursday, 30.9.82'; typed on the back of research material that appears to have been used in the writing of the book on cane growers by Muriel Langford or perhaps someone from OPAL. This is an first person account of events on Thursday 30 Sep 1982; at times it is a verbatim account (with quotation marks handwritten); Muriel Langford is mentioned in the third person in the first line. It includes details of the march by Australia Aborigines and their supporters from Mt Gravatt down the Pacific Highway, and the police actions to stop the march. People mentioned include: Ross Watson, Freddy Martin, Maureen Watson, Carole Ferrier, Bob Wetherall, Les Melezer, Pam Jones, Marcia Langton, Jean Skuse, Fr Mick Hayes, Fr Warby, Stan Stanley, Paul Richards, Budga Davidson, Mick Miller, and Pastor Harris.
