Hardcover. Etat : Fair. ​Look Forward, Not Back: Aborigines in Metropolitan Brisbane, 1965-1966 by Hazel M. Smith and Ellen H. Biddle is a sociological study examining the experiences of Aboriginal Australians who migrated from rural settlements to Brisbane during the mid-1960s. The book explores the challenges these individuals faced in adapting to urban life, including issues related to housing, employment, education, and social integration.

Through this analysis, the authors shed light on the complexities of urbanization for Aboriginal communities and the need for supportive structures that acknowledge and respect their unique cultural identities.

They have had previous experience of white Australian society, but little of the social institutions that white Australians take for granted. In Brisbane, these social institutions and their agencies are available, yet Aborigines do not take advantage of them, partly because of their past lack of experience, and partly because they do not always see such institutions as compatible with their life styles.
