Jack Horner and his wife Jean joined the newly-formed Aboriginal-Australian Fellowship in 1957 after attending the launch of the Fellowship's petition campaign in the Sydney Town Hall. This was a petition for constitutional change to empower the federal government in Aboriginal affairs. From 1958 to 1966, Jack Horner was the hardworking Honorary Secretary in the Fellowship, during which time he came to understand conditions of life for New South Wales Aboriginal people and campaigned for the repeal of the New South Wales Aborigines Protection Act 1935.-National Museum of Australia
