Summary:Everything You Need to Know forms part of the campaign to educate the broader Australian public about Indigenous people's position within the Australian legal landscape, and how Indigenous people have continually worked to change the nature of this relationship to better engage their rights as the original inhabitants of this land. The 1967 Referendum removed the clause in Section 51(xxvi) that stated that the federal government could not make laws for the members of the Aboriginal race. Everything You Need to Know works for multiple audiences: it is both an educative read for those wishing to inform themselves about the 2023 Referendum and a reference book for students and academics across a range of disciplines including literary studies, law, history, political science, and Indigenous studies.
