Margaret Tucker was born at Warrangesda Mission near Narrandera to William Clements, a Wiradjuri man, and Theresa Clements, née Middleton, a member of the Yorta Yorta Nation. She spent her childhood at Cummeragunja Aboriginal Reserve until at the age of 13 she was forcibly removed to the Cootamundra Domestic Training Home for Aboriginal Girls, where she was badly treated. After training at Cootamundra in 1919 she was sent out to work for a white family where she was abused. The Aborigines Protection Board intervened and she was given another placement from which she ran away. In 1925 the Board released her and she moved to Melbourne. Tucker was awarded the MBE in 1968, recognising her welfare services to the aborigines. Her 1977 autobiography If Everyone Cared was one of the first books to bring to light the mistreatment of her people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Tucker ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
