'Family photographs add so much to Aboriginal autobiography. Aboriginal people will scan them to see who they know and what the buildings, clothes, and area looked like then. Photographs are an open invitation to connect with your people, no matter where they are from.' (Introduction)

'In his 1968 Boyer Lectures, After the Dreaming, anthropologist W.E.H. Stanner lamented that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples had been omitted from narratives of the nation’s past. Contending that this omission was ‘a structural matter’, he likened Australian history to ‘a view from a window which has been carefully placed to exclude a whole quadrant of the landscape’. He proposed that the kinds of stories which could bring Indigenous history into view for Australian readers would focus on the lives of individuals.' (Introduction)

'As a Yorta Yorta academic and anthropologist who teaches and researches upon the land of my people, I was honoured to be asked to review this book by Bain Attwood. Uncle William Cooper has inspired many Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people through his work as a human rights activist. Through his activism, Uncle William contributed to the identity of the Yorta Yorta community, serving as an Elder in Melbourne, Shepparton and across the world. The Yorta Yorta community honour his contribution where possible, and his descendants carry on his work today by representing and honouring his work in education and legal institutions.' (Introduction)
