Australian prime minister @ScottMorrisonMP said “forgiveness is never earned” - with 1 in every 2 kids locked up being #Indigenous - I disagree - I wrote this in @smh in response. #Indigenous #AusPol #RaiseTheAge #MeAt13

Opinion: What is an apology worth if you continue to commit the same behaviour? Australia is still reckoning with the reality that the Stolen Generation is not in the past; it never really ended, writes Jordan Elizabeth Cory https://t.co/N0FNMggShg

[Partners In Health @PIH]

Partners In Health announced that its founder, Dr. Paul Farmer, unexpectedly passed away today in his sleep while in Rwanda.

Dr. Farmer was 62 years old. He is survived by his wife, Didi Bertrand Farmer, and their three children.

"It is unconscionable for Australia to continue policies that only result in more broken families, broken communities, loss of culture & more Stolen Generations of Indigenous children."
Incredibly powerful. #Fulbright Scholar @JordanCory on justice reform:

Today an 11 year-old wrote this letter about his recent experience of #DonDale. If this is not proof we need #raisetheage and #closedondale than we have lost our humanity.

@psg_au If you read the article - it says 1 in 2 kids locked up are Indigenous despite comprising over 6 percent of the population. It has nothing to do with more people being safer to identify

Truly horrific - highlights need for inclusive proactive rather than reactive #publichealth policy for #prioritycommunites #BIPOC - one size doesn’t fit all #auspol #covid19 https://t.co/jwLkIcKLE7

Half of the sources I quoted this year for @business were women. That’s 337 in total, or about one a day. Unfortunately, it's an anomaly in journalism & something I've failed at miserably in the past. Here’s how I got there & why I believe it improved my reporting:

This is the Uluru Statement From the Heart.

[Lauren Herschel @LaurenHerschel]

After what has been a surprisingly okayish Christmas, I had a moment today in SuperStore. Saw a lady who reminded me of my 92yo grandma, who even in the early stages of dementia, completely understood that my mom died.
I thought I’d share the Ball in the Box analogy my Dr told me

HOw wonderful it is to be in the same space as some smart, strong and engaged Black women today! So inclusive and genuine - we can do great things when we work together <3 #indigenousexcellence @banoky @Ngaree_j @JordanCory @ItsJustPep

[June Oscar @June_Oscar]

Sincere condolences to the Mabo family. Bonita Mabo was a woman of great strength. She was gentle, stoic and loving. I will always remember her as the mother of native title. Her legacy lives on in our continuing fight for land and sea rights. https://t.co/W7E8kIe1Cp via @abcnews

Congratulations to Sasha Mortimore for winning the 2018 People’s Choice Award Winner at the Royal Perth Show with “In the faces of our Family." The photo was responding to the #NAIDOC2018 Week theme of #BecauseOfHerWeCan and depicts 3 generations of Pitjakarli women. Beautiful!

[Sir Michael Marmot @MichaelMarmot]

Compelling figure. Thank you. All it needs now is a way to make clear that poverty, inequality and austerity are determinants of obesity

[Dr Jordan Cory @JordanCory]

Deadly day yesterday with all the staff & community at @VAHS1972 for Teddy Bear Hospital for our littlest mob. @Ngaree_j & I put our @AIDAAustralia stethoscopes to good use! Thanks to @unimelb & @RCHMelbourne for supporting such an important & fun health literacy program!
