The background behind and story of the Pilbara Strike by Aboriginal stock workers. The strike (and the lead up to it and the aftermath) is described by the workers' supporter, the Western Australian activist Don McLeod (1908-1999). "The Pilbara strike of 1946-49 is one of the most dramatic moments in Australia?s indigenous history. Aboriginal people not only defied the owners of pastoral stations in North-West Western Australia by demanding better wages and conditions, but also sought to win independence from their colonial masters. In its aftermath, they acquired considerable freedom and autonomy through co-operative mining and other ventures. The story of this struggle inspired the campaign for Aboriginal rights throughout Australia." (Plbarastike.org). A personal account of an important period in Australian history, with b&w photographs of some of the participants of the strike.
