Focusing on the journey of Indigenous self-determination in Australia, the book explores the influential role of Dr. H. C. Coombs, a key policy maker post-1967 referendum. It examines the political mechanisms necessary for Indigenous Australians to assert their voices, weaving together unpublished sources to reveal the complex relationship between government policies and Indigenous practices. This narrative not only details Coombs' contributions but also serves as a biographical tribute to his significant impact on Australian society.
