Abstract

This is an obituary for Vincent (Vince) Copley Senior, a distinguished Elder of the Ngadjuri people of South Australia, passed away on 10th January 2022 at the age of 85. Vince Copley was awarded an OAM in 2014 in recognition of his service in promoting the social, legal, and economic rights and cultural identity of Indigenous Australians. He has made major contributions to Australia in three capacities: as a campaigner for Indigenous rights; as a sporting hero and leader in Australian rules and cricket; and in leading the Ngadjuri nation to reindigenise their lands.
