Items related to It's Not the Money It's the Land: Aboriginal...
Before 1966 Aboriginal workers on Australian cattle ranches were often not paid or paid extremely poorly, but the rancher assumed some responsibility for the welfare of the entire community. The High Court decision that Aborigines must be paid equal wages had wide-ranging social consequences for these communities. The author tells the story of the decision and its rippling effects, relying heavily on oral history as recounted by Aborigines, ranchers, social workers, and other concerned parties.
