- Description
- The influence of Marcus Garvey's black nationalist movement on the mobilization for Australian Aboriginal self-determination in the 192os remains little known in the dominant Australian or international historical scholarship. Historians and political scientists have given scant regard to the interconnections between oppressed Aboriginal people and racialized struggles of people in other parts of the world. Instead, their focus has tended to emphasize a binary examination of race relations between blacks and whites. In particular, their studies of external influences on Aboriginal political activism have focused on white Christian and humanitarian influences in Australia. Furthermore, most studies of an organized Aboriginal political agenda are locked into the ingrained misconception that Aboriginal political activism had its beginnings during the vibrant 1960s.
