From Wikipedia:

The Australian Abo Call was the first Aboriginal-focused publication printed in Australia.[1] There were a total of six issues, all published in 1938.[2] It was written and edited by John (Jack) Patten, co-founder of the Aborigines Progressive Association and featured news gathered by Patten on his travels through Eastern Australia, and from correspondents nation-wide.[3] The newspaper's tagline was "The Voice of the Aborigines".
