Self-Determination Not Intervention: The NT Intervention and the Struggle for Aboriginal Justice
10 December 6:30pm for 7pm start Swanston Hall Melbourne Town Hall cnr Swanston & Collins Sts, Melbourne download leaflet The Australian government has failed to sign on to the UN Declaration on Indigenous Peoples' Rights because it disagreed with the phrase 'self-determination'. Indigenous peoples' rights are good enough for the United Nations, so why not Australia? Indigenous disadvantage exists throughout Australia and sovereignty still hasn't been recognised. Neither major party is stepping up to the plate on this issue by providing the necessary recognition, compensation and support. The Federal Government's emergency intervention in the NT overrides the Racial Discrimination Act and undermines Indigenous self-determination and land rights. It has not been developed in consultation with Indigenous communities and fails to address the central issues of poverty, lack of health care, basic services and infrastructure that the government has been ignoring for so long. Organise by the Alliance for Indigenous Self Determination - an open, Melbourne-based alliance of groups and individuals. more: recent actions |

December 6 [Melbourne] Climate action 08 The major political parties don’t have plans to solve the real climate crisis.
