Canberra banner drops demand sovereignty.

A group of aboriginal rights activists last night dropped a number of banners around the Civic in the nation's capital. One reading '(AUSTRALIA - crossed out) INVASION DAY. SOVEREIGNTY NEVER CEDED" was hung over the pedestrian bridge on Alinga St. Numbers 21-23 and 25 London Cct, across from the Department of Public Prosecutions, had banners which read, respectively, "224 YEARS OF OCCUPATION, 224 YEARS OF RESISTANCE" and "STOLEN LAND".

All children are sacred

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.
