Description: This is an engaging study of the stories of racial awakening in Australia that marked the coming of the 'wind of change'. Through rigorous research, the author shows how supporters of Indigenous Australians and their struggles for equality pushed Australia into the 60s - literally and figuratively. The book also puts the Australian experience of the 60s into an international perspective, portrayed as unique but not in isolation.
Notes: Includes index.
