Category:Indigenous Australian leaders

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island people have provided leadership to their own people. Some have also been in leadership roles in the wider community.

Indigenous people in Australia are both Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islanders. People of South Sea Islander descent may be included by popular culture, although they are the descendants of Pacific Islanders brought to Australia during the 19th century as indentured labour on the Queensland sugar canefields.
