Always Was Always Will Be | Thomas Mayo
Always Was, Always Will Be: The Campaign for Justice and Recognition Continues by Thomas Mayo is a powerful and hopeful call to action for Australians who believe in truth-telling, justice and a fairer future.
Written in the wake of the 2023 Voice to Parliament referendum, this thought-provoking book explores what comes next for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander recognition and reconciliation. Rather than dwelling on disappointment, Thomas Mayo focuses on hope, resilience and practical ways that Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians can continue working together for meaningful change.
Thomas Mayo is a Kaurareg Aboriginal and Kalkalgal, Erubamle Torres Strait Islander man, respected advocate, author and signatory to the Uluru Statement from the Heart. As one of the leading voices behind the Voice campaign, he brings both lived experience and deep insight to the conversations shaping Australia's future.
Honest, accessible and deeply inspiring, Always Was, Always Will Be is ideal for readers wanting to better understand recent Australian history, strengthen their allyship and continue the journey towards justice and recognition.
For readers who enjoyed The Voice to Parliament Handbook, Finding the Heart of the Nation or the works of Anita Heiss, this is an essential addition to the bookshelf.
