"He been treat me fella like a dog alla time"

Flyer circulated as part of the Equal Wages Campaign, led by Barry Christophers. Black type on white paper. Features a black and white print of a photograph of what appears to be an Aboriginal Australian stockman. Describes the strikes at Newcastle Waters Station and Wave Hill Station, with workers walking off the job and the Meat Workers' Union refusing to handle cattle from the stations. Ends with a request for financial assistance. At the foot of the flyer is a section that can be torn off and mailed to the campaign headquarters.
