1. Engagement Between Indigenous Australians, Government and
the Wider Society. Prepared by Wendy Wild Student ID: wIlwm002 for
South Australian University 2015.
2. Warning This PowerPoint Presentation may contain references
to and the names of deceased Indigenous People. It also contains
racist and detrimental terminology that was historically acceptable
for their epoch and is in no way associated with the values and
beliefs of the presenter, an Indigenous Eora woman from NSW.
3. Engagement is problematic and is faced with multi faceted
issues of cultural, language and value differences.

15. The Australian Aborigines' League (AAL) was founded in
Melbourne in 1933 by an elderly Yorta Yorta man, William Cooper,
and several other Aboriginal people, most of them exiles from
Cumeragunja, a government reserve on the Murray River, who gathered
in Fitzroy and other inner-city suburbs. They regarded the AAL as
their organisation, and its constitution stipulated that only
Aboriginal people could be full members and that they should mainly
fill its administrative positions. Yet Cooper, as secretary, also
relied on sympathetic non-Aboriginal activists to engage
government. Image 11. William Cooper
16. The Aborigines Progressive Association (APA), an
all-Aboriginal body, was Formed in 1937 in New South Wales with
Jack Patten as president and Bill Ferguson as secretary. The APA,
together with William Cooper, was responsible for organising the
Day of Mourning protest on Australia Day in 1938. The APA had three
aims: full citizenship rights for Aboriginal Australians,
Aboriginal representation in Parliament and abolition of the New
South Wales Aborigines' Protection Board. Image 13.

26. Engagement There have been many activists, not only
Indigenous but non-indigenous as well. They have fought long and
hard for equality and equity for the First Peoples of Australia
since Colonisation. They have succeeded in many things, but they
have also failed at times. Their greatest legacy is that they have
inspired others to action. There have been many barriers that have
been overcome, but, one may argue there are still, as many to
hurdle.
