RESPECT to the Gurindji & all who light the way for #Indigenous rights to become reality. The fight continues.
We now have 242 signatures! Sooooo great!
Thank you for signing the petition for a Treaty for Indigenous Australians. Please share widely with your friends, family and colleagues and talk about the possibilities:
Some key points made by Tony McAvoy QC:
* A treaty is achievable
* There must be an acknowledgment that Australia was not settled
* The assertions of sovereignty by the British Colonies, and now by the Commonwealth of Australia, are flawed
* We need an Assembly of First Nations
* There must be land reform
* There must be changes to the land tenure arrangements
* There must be reparations, compensation and equitable benefit sharing
* Structural reform needs to take place at many levels
* There needs to be guaranteed representation in Parliament
Thanks again - we're in this together; stronger together!
