Beautifully illustrated, this hard-backed book gives voice to the views of Aboriginal people living under the Intervention. In this book we hear the true voices of Aboriginal people calling out to be heard. Each page speaks volumes about their frustration and despair at the failure of Government to listen.
Please come and hear more about this book, Stronger Futures legislation, its clash with our human rights obligations, the calls by NT Elders for opposition to the Government's approach and the Stand for Freedom campaign by the wonderful Graeme Mundine and Amy McQuire.
We hope to see you and your family, friends and colleagues at this important book launch. Please forward this invitation to all your networks. Feel free to post the info on facebook and twitter.
Best regards,
Sabine
