Abbott in Yirrkala

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Mon, 15/09/2014 - 9:06am

The PM has now 'fulfilled' his election promise of spending one week in an Indigenous community. However, this promise to repair the relationship between conservatives and the First Peoples of this country could have ulterior motives. Congratulations! He's chosen Yirrkala, perhaps one of the best remote communities in Australia. The town where the world-famous band, Yothu Yindi originate from. Yirrkala is also located on the picturesque coastline of East Arnhem Land with crystal clear water and an abundance of Burramundi.

The betrayal of our children – the Northern Territory

Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Sun, 17/08/2014 - 3:00pm

By Gerry Georgatos - Courtesy of The Stringer and The National Indigenous Times - http://thestringer.com.au/ and http://nit.com.au/ Children in the Northern Territory are three times more likely to die before they turn five years of age than children born into the suburbs of Melbourne and Sydney. But when the data is disaggregated, the Northern Territory’s First Nations children, who are nearly half the Northern Territory child population, fare dramatically worse.

We were not put on this Earth to bury our children, but in the Northern Territory, this is what is happening.
