So many arguments about Indigenous rights in Australia seem to boil to a simple yet utterly insulting and bewilderingly racist question: was the invasion ‘good’ for Aboriginal people? (Spoiler alert: fuck off with that)

@KateEllisMP @ParliamentHouse @SharonClaydon It was our genuine privilege. I can only envisage that I can follow in the footsteps of our great woman leaders - thank you

[Madeleine Richey @maddygrace_r]

Feeling privileged to have shared the space today with these 2 deadly women @ParliamentHouse, raising our communities strengths and challenges and discussing the political climate with @KateEllisMP and @SharonClaydon. Thank you for inspiring and supporting us #StraightTalk2018

I think ppl get confused when we talk about intergenerational trauma because it’s not just the impact of what happened to ppl long ago, it’s that their trauma has been compounded by the trauma inflicted on each subsequent generation... it is ongoing, not just historic. #HOSW8

Last day at #straighttalk with this mob of strong, deadly, women trailblazers. Every single one of whom is dedicating their time, knowledge and experience to their respective communities. Soo much energy in one space #straighttalk2018 #oxfam #indigenouswomeninleadership

Really enjoyed meeting with 70 remarkable Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women for the Oxfam #straighttalk2018 Summit today. Inspiring to see these women in leadership driving change across Australia.

Talking about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth suicide. A chilling sentiment underlying the trauma and loss of control that impacts on our health and wellbeing

When you're soo excited to snuggle your 2.5 year old all night after being away at #CATSINaM18 and she tells you she "wants to sleep in Islas bed mummy" #mumlife #independent #loveme

Leaving beautiful #Adelaide, taking in the sun rising over the hills & Tarndanyangga. What a great @CATSINaM conference gathering, was so good to catch up w/ friends & colleagues, a #NewDay going home recharged. @IndigenousX @JanineMilera

Let's all just stop for a second and reflect on the fact that an Australian senator is trying to move a white supremacist slogan as a motion in the Senate today... We need to ask how we got to such a point, and what we as a nation are going to do about it. https://t.co/mphcm5CS8p

“According to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) website, ““It’s okay to be white” has a long history in the white supremacist movement”. https://t.co/in9jeQ11NM
