Mudrooroo, Us Mob: History, Culture, Struggle: An Introduction to Indigenous Australia (1995)

This is a series of lectures given by Mudrooroo. I don’t see where they were given in the introduction, but I assume it was to an audience with some background in Indigenous studies because he assumes a reasonable level of knowledge in the reader.

There are lectures on health, education, law, religion, history and culture. What I found most interesting about them was the endnotes, as he calls on a network of Indigenous writers. Almost all the endnotes he references are other writers of colour.
