Victorian Aboriginal Corporation for LanguagesBook, Bruce Pascoe, The little red yellow black book : an introduction to Indigenous Australia, 2008
The Little Red Yellow Black Book is an accessible and highly illustrated pocket-sized guide.

If you want to read stories the media don't tell you, mini-essays on famous as well as everyday individuals and organisations will provide insights into a range of Australian Indigenous experiences.maps, b&w photographs, colour photographsindigenous history, culture, art, sport, health, education, employment, reconciliation, resistance, governance -
