We Are Bosses Ourselves: The Status and Role of Aboriginal Women Today edited by Fay Gale

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges, particularly right front cover corners, now reinforced with book tape. Previous owner has signed inside page, now covered with blank ex libris bookplate sticker. Some highlighting of text. Binding is still very good.

This collection of papers arises from the first Australia-wide meeting of Aboriginal women at the 1980 ANZAAS Conference in Adelaide.

It is organised into four sections. The first section offers five different views of the general role of Aboriginal women in the 1980s. Section two gives examples of the significance of women in the fight for land rights. The third looks at health, education, employment and family history issues. The last section summarises the discussions at the meeting and highlights key issues. (back cover)
