During this time, deaf Australians aspired to manage their own affairs. They enjoyed some success by establishing "breakaways" from the Deaf Societies, and they also established an independent national organization, which was contested and ultimately suppressed by the Deaf Societies. These developments were influenced by wider social movements in Australian society, such as the mobilization of minority groups in their push for autonomy and equal rights. Although most of the breakaway Deaf organizations did not survive beyond the 1930s, they significantly affected the power structures and relationships between deaf and hearing people in Australia. The Australian Deaf community's attempts to organize independently during these years have been largely erased from collective memory, making Carty's examination a particularly important and necessary addition to the historical literature.
