Australian Aborigines Advocate front cover, 31 March 1908.

Australian Aborigines Advocate, originally published as The New South Wales Aborigines' Advocate, was a monthly English language magazine originally published in Sydney, Australia.

History

The New South Wales Aborigines' Advocate was a monthly publication of the New South Wales Aborigines' Mission, beginning on 23 July 1901 and continuing until 29 February 1908.[1] When the mission changed its name to Australian Aborigines Mission, the publication became the Australian Aborigines' Advocate. At this time the subscription was one shilling per annum.[2]

The publication identified itself as "the organ of the Australian Aborigines Mission"[2] and its purpose was to be a monthly record of work amongst the Australian Aborigines.[2] It continued until 1 February 1929.[3] The mission once more changed name, this time to United Aborigines Mission. Its publication became The United Aborigines Messenger, which continued until April/May 1987.[4] From 1987 until 2003 the magazine was published under the shortened title of Messenger.[5]
