ProvenanceBarwick, Diane Elizabeth
Description

Series 28 is an artificial series that brings together records generated in the Aboriginal rights movement that took place from the 1960s in Australia. Through her writing, public speaking, and other work, Diane Barwick actively supported the goals of Aboriginal justice and equality. The records in Series 28 are not particular to any specific project, organisation, or event in which Diane Barwick was involved. Rather, she acquired these records throughout the course of her working life in Australia. The period of time best documented in Series 28 is c.1962-c.1972.

Series 28 includes issues of Smoke Signals published between October 1962 and June 1969. Smoke Signals was the official organ of the Aborigines Advancement League. Other organisations documented in this series include the Federal Council for Aboriginal Advancement (FCAA), later renamed the Federal Council for the Advancement of Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders (FCAATSI).

Series 28 includes an extensive collection of the literature of these and other groups, including newsletters, fliers, reports to government bodies, information booklets, and media transcripts. Diane Barwick's work brought her into contact with many of the community groups, church groups, university organisations, groups of concerned citizens, district land councils, and other bodies whose records feature in Series 28. Some of the records in Series 28, such as her papers and correspondence from the Easter conference of FCAATSI in 1969, also reflect Diane Barwick's active involvement in particular events or with specific organisations. The period of time best documented by the records in Series 28 is approximately 1962-1972.

Series 28 also documents related initiatives from other parts of the world including New Zealand, Canada and the United States.

Other records relevant to the Aboriginal rights initiatives documented in Series 28 can be found in Series 27 and Series 29 of the Barwick Collection.
