First Nations voices in the Library collection

book covers

After renewed national and international attention and momentum following the tragic murder of George Floyd, the Black Lives Matter movement has made many of us who call Australia home reflect on ourselves and Australia’s history of racial violence stemming from colonisation.

Because of this, many people have been seeking resources to learn more about history, First Nations culture and racial justice. Below is a list of some resources available to University of Sydney Library users written by First Nations authors. These resources were chosen because they relate to history, truth telling, First Nations self-representation and academia and may spark thoughts and considerations about your studies and research. This is not an exhaustive list but could be a good starting point. For an international perspective, check out this reading list.
