ALWAYS WAS ALWAYS WILL BE
Always Was, Always Will Be by Aunty Fay Stewart-Muir and Sue Lawson (publishhed by Magabala Books) carefully and respectfully documents the resistance of First Nations peoples in Australia.
Recommended as junior non-fiction, this is a book for all ages, and should be in every Australian home, school and local library.
From the first protest of January 26th as a Day of Mourning in 1938, to the Pilbara Strike of 1946, to the struggle for the right to vote and be counted; the fight for justice for First Nations people takes many forms.
Among many iconic events and moments in our shared history, readers can learn about the Tent Embassy, the 1967 Referendum, Mabo v QLD, the Stolen Generations, Sorry Day, the Long Walk, the Voice Referendum and more.
If you head to the Magabala site, you can download sample pages.
Thank you Aunty Fay Muir and Sue Lawson.
