"This book celebrates the strength, wisdom and bravery of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples defending their lands and rights through history. It takes a close look at some of the iconic First Nations protest movements since 1788 and the great change they achieved as a result. Understanding our past helps us see how far we have come. It also shows us how we must continue to work towards healing and understanding."--Publisher's summary.
