Just Relations (eBook, ePUB)

The Story of Mary Bennett's Crusade for Aboriginal Rights

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book charts the life and work of one of Australia's leading twentieth century human rights advocates. It recovers the efforts of Mary Bennett (1881-1961) to found a 'just relationship' between Aborigines and non-Aborigines in Australia from the late 1920s, when the possibility of Aboriginal human rights was first mooted on the international stage, to the 1960s, when an attempt was made to have the Aboriginal question raised before the United Nations.
