All children are sacred

Submitted by Noel Conway on Sat, 31/12/2011 - 7:35pm

The Intervention in the Northern Territory was of course an act of blatant racism. To send the army into indigenous communities to remove children from parents, to cut payments to aboriginals, to abandon the racial Discrimmination Act, to forego our responsibilities under International treaties on human rights, was an affront to the humanity of many Australians, black and white.
