    'The Reconciliation Convention in Melbourne in May brought together Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians in a powerful and moving expression of both achievement and hope. The principal achievement celebrated at the convention was the outcome, on its thirtieth anniversary, of the 1967 Referendum. The hope was that, in the words of a woman from the New South Wales south coast on a different occasion, it would continue, for Indigenous people, to be 'a winnin battle. It used to be a losin battle, but now it's a winnin one.' (Editorial introduction)
