Description: 'This book provides the practical pointers for hope if we are ever to achieve constitutional recognition of my people. It addresses the mistakes of the 2023 referendum so that we can all learn and regroup. It's a "must read".'
- John Lochowiak, Chairperson of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Catholic Council

The major future challenge for the country will be according to First Australians' agency and self-determination while remaining true to the undoubted rules for constitutional change. Indigenous leaders will not accept minimal symbolic change to the Constitution. It will be necessary to find that sweet spot of substantive change acceptable to most members of the Commonwealth Parliament.

This book highlights the mistakes of 2023 and points a way forward in hope. A good process can yield good policy, which can produce good politics, which might then result in a popular positive referendum result.
