Barbara Cross and Manfred Cross discuss events occurring through the late 1960s and 1970s including Peace Movement rallies and speeches but note that the ALP did not play a leading role in the protest groups at that time. Manfred Cross discusses actively supporting Indigenous Queenslanders' rights including the formation of the Queensland Aboriginals Advancement League whose first chair was John Camp, and the formation of the Queensland Council for the Advancement of Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders whose leader was Kathy Walker from Stradbroke Island.
Bob Anderson speaks about his early experiences growing up in regards to his early schooling, the working roles of the adults and the industries on Stradbroke Island at that time, and his early sense of identity. He also talks of the transition experienced by the locals going from using a barter system to a cash economy.
