At Inner Melbourne Community Legal (IMCL) and @Police_Acc_Proj, we support their calls so that what happened to Veronica, never happens again #PoccumsLaw
@SophieTrevitt Just devastated to read this. A true fighter & warrior who touched more ppl then she could ever imagine or probably realised. A legacy that will burn brightly for eternity
Rest easy beautiful one ❤️❤️❤️
We have been so lucky at @TheJusticeMap to have had brilliant, generous, fierce @SophieTrevitt on our Advisory Board since we began. We will miss you so deeply Soph. We will work to honour you - and your determination to make this world more just.
To the uncountable everyone that loved her and were inspired by her: this little legend, this total legend, the kindest, the bravest, the most ridiculous, the best, our hero, our most precious one:
Change the Record Co-Chairs, Steering Committee and staff send our love and thoughts to Sophie’s partner Tom, their families and friends who are feeling her loss.
But Soph was more than just her achievements, she was compassionate and silly, she always had time for long yarns about anything from politics to good hiking trips. She was a phenomenal friend, an amazing colleague, a hard worker and the fiercest ally. She will be greatly missed.
Earlier this year Sophie’s efforts in campaigns to ban spit hoods, and raise the minimum age of criminal responsibility were recognised by the Voltaire Human Rights Award.
Sophie was a staunch ally and advocate in the fights for justice for First Nations People and throughout her career, dedicated herself to uplifting, supporting, amplifying and standing alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
Just for some context, in the past two years @ZiziAverill and I have written 60,000+ words on NT Youth Detention, predominantly #Dondale and #Spithoods. In Feb 2022 we were given this letter from an 11-yr-old locked up in Don Dale.
It has been ten years since Monique Clubb was disappeared on 22 June 2013. Ten years and no answers. Ten years since Ms Bernard was disappeared. Their families still long for them to return back to county
Kids on #Nauru were so traumatised they couldn’t even speak. But now, they are taking the government to court for this brutality. Please, help us secure accountability for our refugee clients with an #EOFY donation 👉 https://t.co/PWw3EYDAiO
We all must stand with Lidia just as we all stand with white women who disclose sexual abuse.
We as white woman must believe Blak women not disbelieve and rip them down. We must end our racism perpetrated against Aboriginal women.
#IStandWithLidia 🖤💛♥️
GEO group lost their contract for Victorian prisons, & was referred to the prosecutor over the death of an Aboriginal woman. Yet they have retained responsibility for the health of 1000+ people in prison. We must hold these companies to a higher standard of accountability!
The company referred to the prosecutor over the death of an Aboriginal woman in prison will still be responsible for the healthcare of more than 1000 people in prison, despite losing the contract for public prisons in the state. My story for @crikey_news: https://t.co/MMw35rMI9n
