Rantings of an Aboriginal Feminist: Adam Goodes and the case of Jack Sultan-Page - a guest post by Daniel Jack
http://blackfeministranter.blogspot.com.au/2015/08/adam-goodes-and-case-...
1 Aug 15: "Hi all. I've taken the rare move of posting up something written by someone else on my blog. I had the privilege of meeting Dan - a proud Gomeroi man - through my brother Joel many years ago as they were part of the same intake for an Indigenous Cadetship Programme. Since then, Dan has become somewhat of an unofficially adopted brother. He wrote up this on Facebook the other day, and because I thought it was fantastic, I've asked if I can republish it on my blog. I hope some of the points he has made hit home for some. Thanks, Dan. I'm very proud to know you - CL [Celeste Liddle]"

Constitutional Recognition Survey
- Data Analysis by Celeste Liddle and Survey Conducted by IndigenousX
http://indigenousx.com.au/constitutional-recognition-survey/
" IndigenousX decided to release their own survey to the community on the topic of Constitutional Recognition. IndigenousX is uniquely positioned in Social Media as one of few Indigenous owned and operated online spaces that actively engages with many sides of the political spectrum, whether they are seen as ‘mainstream’ or not. In the 1.5 weeks this survey has been available for responses, 827 community members have responded. This survey was distributed online, via social media channels, and was shared widely. The results it has reaped have been telling. We will investigate the question responses one by one in the interest of transparency."
