[Review Essay] Bunji: A Story of the Gwalwa Daraniki Movement Michael Walsh , 1994 single work essay
— Appears in: Australian Aboriginal Studies , no. 2 1994; (p. 76-78)

The main title, Bunji, refers not just to the black rights newsletter founded by Bill Day, but also recalls the term used especially by Aborigines for a mate. Although mateship may have taken on something of a taint by now, this is in part a story of mateship in which one man shows that he can make a difference. This is a personal account of the struggle for Aboriginal land rights in Darwin in the 1970s and into the 80s.'  (Introduction)
