How do you ask R U OK?
For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, it's important they ask it in their own way.
Regardless of where we live, or who our mob is, we can all go through tough times. That’s why it’s important to always be looking out for each other.
Can I just say that I'm pissed about the current reporting on Mparntwe/Alice Springs. I am born and raised in Mparntwe. My whole family continues to live there. My work is there. For YEARS we have lobbied for needs-based funding to address domestic, family, and sexual violence...
✨ The Blak & Deadly star-studded line-up has landed! ✨
Tickets for Blak & Deadly: The First Nations Gala Concert at the Sydney Opera House are only available via the MobTix program, which provides discounted tickets for First Nations people. Apply now: https://t.co/LDt5NEeiEo

Representing the 45 years since the first Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, which took place on 24 June 1978, you can now read the full list and bios of all 45 Rainbow Champions: https://t.co/gzEAD4mUR9 ✨
Sending love and solidarity from Sydney. We will continue to #StandUpToHate.

I see and hear DV everyday as a doctor in Mparntwe. If I find any clinician at ASH who didn’t watch #4Corners I will make it very clear that they have no business servicing our communities. You cannot treat and “care for” Aboriginal women & ignore this injustice.
“It doesn’t matter what age or ethnicity you are, ask people around you, 'are you OK?'."
