my people

Oodgeroo's writing has a unique place in Australian literature. When her poetry was first published in the 1960s, Kath Walker, as she was known then, provided a brave new voice for marginalised Aboriginal Australians. For the first time, an Aboriginal Australian was analysing and judging white Australians as well as her own people. She often made provocative and passionate pleas for justice:

We want hope, not racialism,
Brotherhood, not ostracism,
Black advance, not white ascendance:
Make us equals, not dependants.

This collection of poetry and prose is a reminder of Oodgeroo's contribution to Indigenous culture and the journey toward reconciliation. All Australians should be proud of this poet who dedicated her life to her people and her land.

我的人民

烏德古魯(Oodgeroo)的寫作在澳洲文學中佔有獨特的地位。當她的詩歌在1960年代首次出版時,當時被稱為凱斯·沃克(Kath Walker)的她,為邊緣化的原住民澳洲人提供了一個勇敢的新聲音。這是第一次,一位原住民澳洲人分析和評判白人澳洲人以及她自己的人民。她經常發出挑釁且充滿激情的呼籲,要求正義:

我們要希望,而不是種族主義,
兄弟情誼,而不是排斥,
黑人的進步,而不是白人的優越:
讓我們成為平等,而不是依賴者。

這本詩歌和散文的合集提醒我們烏德古魯對原住民文化的貢獻以及通往和解的旅程。所有澳洲人都應該為這位將一生奉獻給她的人民和土地的詩人感到驕傲。
