      abstract = {Fighting Hard tells a history of the Aborigines  Advancement League, the oldest Aboriginal organization in  Australia. As both a welfare and activist body, the League  can be seen as the mother of all Aboriginal Victorian  community organizations, having spawned a diverse range of  organizations. This work discusses how the League  influenced the fight for civil rights and took a stand  against the government's assimilation policy and how its  national significance is marked by the League's leadership  where, from the 1970s, many community heroes became role  models for Aboriginal youth.},
