Thomas Mayor Book order (chronological)
Thomas Mayor is an author whose experiences as a Torres Strait Islander growing up on the mainland shaped his powerful voice. Initially a wharf labourer, he found his calling in union organising and advocacy, channeling these skills into a tireless campaign for Indigenous rights. He became a pivotal signatory to the Uluru Statement from the Heart and, following the convention, undertook a significant national journey to build support for constitutional recognition and truth-telling processes. His writing serves as a crucial contribution to this ongoing movement, offering a gift of understanding and a call for reconciliation to all Australians.
