CLIMATE ACTION SHOWJuly 15th 2024 (repeat)PRODUCED BY Vivien LangfordTAMBORAN AGM - "DON'T FRACK THE NT"andPACIFIC CLIMATE WARRIORS TOUR GOMEROI COUNTRYGUESTS:Aunty Rhonda Dixon-Madden - Welcome to countryTamika Sadler and Larissa Baldwin-Roberts - Get UpMilima May -Larrakia  and Bradley Farrar- Alawa   from Beetaloo  who travelled from NT to this AGM of TamboranDr Emma Skowronski - Doctors for the EnvironmentThanks to organisers from 350.org, AYCC and Get Up!Pacific Climate Warriors Gabriel Veigaunavinaka in FijiJacybnta Fa'Amau in Australia In early November, Gomeroi and Gamilaraay traditional owners, Pacific Climate Warriors and activists, school strikers, local farmers, Move Beyond Coal community members and more came together on Gomeroi country in north-west NSW. Together, we shared stories of resistance and resilience, built deeper relationships and stood in solidarity with Gomeroi & Gamilaraay custodians - whose land is being exploited by fossil fuel companies such as Whitehaven Coal and Santos.This is a recount of what happened over the course of that special weekend - the stories that were told, the fights that were shared, and the solidarity built between communities. (Thanks to Move Beyond Coal)When country expands beyond what your eyes can comprehend, melting into the horizon, it's beyond beautiful, and quite indescribable. This is what I experienced as I watched the landscapes change towards our destination, the colours of the trees and land changing every so often. I knew from this point, that the trip to Narrabri on Gomeroi country, where devastating coal and gas extraction projects are widespread, would be one to remember. On arrival, we were welcomed by Gomeroi custodian Karra Kinchela and her family, by the Namoi river, as the wind rustled through the trees and soon after, embraced the young dancers and Karra's cousin, Clinton Lamb, who led the welcome to country. The stars eventually dressed the night sky as the night crept in, whilst the Pacific Climate Warriors thanked those who welcomed us with their own traditional fijian kava ceremony. Joy and laughter filled the campsite of our initial meeting place, which would reflect the real essence of the people who were fighting for Gomeroi country in Narrabri.Our second day on Gomeroi country, Karra showed us around, first at a site in the Pilliga Forest where water is filtered through to the underground water and finds its way to sea. She talked about how even on country that is considered freshwater, it is still connected to saltwater, and that whatever happens on her country is inherently connected to all countries. This lit up the fire in many people and for some, only added wood to the fire. There were direct connections being made between the effects coal and gas companies like Whitehaven Coal and Santos had on Narrabri and those close by, but also to the ocean and the Pacific Islands.Karra continued the tour by taking us to the front gates of Santos' Lee Wood gas facility.. She described how mining companies enjoy interacting with communities in order to claim, through social licensing, that those communities support their plans. Karra explained that continuing to participate in rallies and actions for Gomeroi country is one of the best ways to combat these false claims of support. She went on to explain how Whitehaven Coal, with numerous coal mines in the area with plans to expand, has eaten a lot of their country. Whitehaven promises all of these jobs and benefits to the community and Indigenous peoples, but these promises are only fallacies, with only a select few hired; their attempt to divert everyone's attention away from the reality that they are not only destroying country, but endangering the lives of those who live in the towns where they mine.We then headed to Maules Creek for lunch, where we were joined by one of the local Gamilaraay elders, Uncle Neville Sampson, who alongside a few other locals who have been fighting fossil fuel projects in their community for decades  explained the history of their fights. Uncle Neville talked about his resilience, and the resilience of those who continue to ensure a future for his people.After lunch, there was an opportunity to visit one of the local farms, and I put my hand up straight away. Being from a small village myself, from a remote island, I wanted to explore what life looked like right next to a coal mine. I remember most of my childhood in my village of Bauz, on Mer Island, in what is colonially known as the Torres Strait. Being from somewhere so remote, with a close knit community, I wondered if I could see a reflection of home amongst the tour, whether in the landscapes or the people. On the tour, we stopped every so often, learning what it takes to farm in Narrabri, about pink slugs and the houses and lands that were sold due to people getting extremely sick from not just the dust in the air from the mines but the gas released from the explosions. One of the farms belonged to a elderly woman, who was constantly sick due to the fumes, and had eventually sold her land and house, which now remains empty. Mining giants seem to have every right to not only harm the environment, but even the people who live within the environment it wants to destroy. After visiting the farm, and patting horses whilst learning about how climate change has even affected what farmers choose to grow now, we returned to Maules Creek renewed and even more passionate about stopping Whitehaven Coal.On our last day, we held an action at  sunrise - in front of Whitehaven Coal's Tarrawonga coal mine. When we arrived at the mine, what was in front of me was not only confronting, but made me feel both physically and spiritually ill. How could anyone devour a land and make it so baron, how could anyone harm country in such a vicious and heartless way, knowing that this land is so inherently connected to Gomeroi people? The trauma that the land experiences translates into real trauma for those who descend from these lands. When you kill or harm a land, you kill or harm it's people. Comprehending this tragedy, one that is paid for, that seeks the destruction of this country to gain profit, was difficult, but it was a reality that had to be acknowledged. It is our reality, and thus our responsibility to ensure that Karra, her family, her people, are able to live, not just survive, on their country, safe and sound. We shared stories, songs and dances in front of the mine, whilst mining security guards watched us as they patrolled the parameters. I couldn't help but mourn for country, but I could also feel the strength of everyone in this space, especially the Gomeroi mob who were so kind and gracious in inviting us to their country to see the truth of this place with our own eyes. Together, in times of crisis, when politicians let us down, we must rally together, allowing our communities to speak for themselves. We can see hope in the First Nations communities fighting to protect the country from new coal and gas projects. We see it in the global demands from Pacific leaders for no new coal and gas, phase out plans and renewables expansion. I remember some of my last words with Uncle Neville, he told me to keep fighting, but to also remember, that I am stronger, and that no matter what, Gomeroi country is who he is, and he will always know and be a part of its land, water and sky. In solidarity, we can protect this country.With Kindness and Au Esuau,Meleika on behalf of Move Beyond CoalP.S. Now more than ever, we need to all stand together and show our politicians that we are building a movement that will outmatch the power of coal and gas corporations like Whitehaven Coal and Santos, who are destroying Gomeroi sacred country and willingly contributing to devastating climate impacts in the Pacific and more.Join Move Beyond Coal teams and grassroots climate groups across the country for a Week of Action from 4-12 December(link is external), to take action in our communities to Turn Up the Heat on Labor.Move Beyond Coalhttps://www.movebeyondcoal.com/

The founder of the First Nation's music group “ Stiff Gins”, Nardi Simpson, is directing a cross cultural Choir in Sydney called Barayagal. It's a place where First Nations and non-Indigenous Australians gather to sing in the Gamilaraay and Yuwaalaraay languages. The choir is making songs inspired by culture, supported by musicians from the Sydney University Conservatorium of Music who are participating as part of their degree

We had the chance to catch up with Gamilaraay artist MitchTambo to talk about the Walanbaa Youth Tour. Mitch was touring the New England area this week, teaching kids about cultural diversity and empowering them to make positive choices in their lives. 

Người sáng lập nhóm nhạc First Nation có tên ‘Stiff Gins', là Nardi Simpson đang chỉ đạo một dàn đồng ca đa văn hóa ở Sydney tên là Barayagal, qui tụ những người thuộc các Quốc Gia Thứ Nhất và người Úc không Bản địa, tụ tập để hát bằng các ngôn ngữ Gamilaraay và Yuwaalaraay. Họ cũng sáng tác những bài hát lấy cảm hứng từ văn hóa, được hỗ trợ bởi các nhạc sĩ từ Nhạc viện Đại học Sydney.

In  Episode 148,  Ben chats with Deb Fernando, who is quite possibly the only Indigenous behaviour analyst in all of Australia.  Deb is a proud Bigambul, Gomeroi woman with strong connections to far northwest NSW within the Gamilaraay language nation. She has 30 years' experience working with First Nations communities throughout Australia, including urban, rural, and remote locations.   Deb started her career as a chef, then worked in government organisation troubleshooting major problems in servicing First Nations people in remote communities. She then went on to work with the University of South Australia where her team of researchers received the Vice Chancellors award for excellence in engaging in communities. Moving from SA back to New South Wales she began working with the SAX institute as the Study manager to progress their First Nations child health research project in urban and rural children's health. Within a short time, they established the project in five major Aboriginal Medical services, which identified the gaps in services to First Nations children within these areas. One highlight was establishing ongoing specialized services such as hearing and speech therapy for First Nations families.  At the age of 50 Deb embarked on my academic career completing my BA and Honors in psychological science at Southern Cross University, continuing her studies in 2020 she completed a Master's in Education in Applied Behavioural Analysis at Monash University. Whilst studying she started to work as a positive behavioural therapist practitioner with The Center for Positive Behavioural support where she held a position as a Behavioural support practitioner.  Over the years Deb has been looking and searching for the most appropriate services for First Nations peoples to assist in closing the gap between First Nations people and Non-First Nations peoples.  Deb has a passion for applied behaviour analysis and therapies that take a holistic approach to addressing the needs of First Nations families.  Due to the impacts of cultural loading, she received over her working career she ended her journey of working for others and started her own business “FeatherWay Road”. Here Deb collaborates with families to establish an environment where everyone feels included, supported, and empowered. Working with neurodiverse children, she embraces their unique strengths, their culture, and challenges to cultivate an inclusive and supportive learning environment.  ABA has been one of the many highlights of her academic career. I have seen and experienced the solid sustainable results this has on families and individuals.  Continuing Education Credits (https://www.cbiconsultants.com/shop) BACB: 2.0 Learning IBAO: 2.0 Cultural QABA: 2.0 DEI Contact: debfern54@hotmail.com Behaviour Speak Podcast Episodes Referenced Grant Bruno https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-37-the-realities-of-autism-in-first-nations-communities-in-canada-with-grant-bruno-phd-candidate/ Louis Busch  https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-11-the-treatment-of-life-threatening-pica-with-louis-busch-bst-abs-hc-med-bcba/ Jordyn Burleson  https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-130-the-tonowanda-seneca-behavior-technician-with-jordyn-burleson-rbt/ Valerie Clack https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-117-the-lakota-bcba-with-valerie-clack-ma-bcbalba/  

When Mitch Tambo appeared on Australia's Got Talent he blew the audience away with his rendition of You're the Voice in Gamilaraay language. But while Mitch was kicking goals on stage, his confidence did not extend to becoming a parent. Mitch was in love with a woman with three daughters he wasn't sure he would be good enough. Fast forward to today and Mitch shares all he has learnt from becoming part of a family with three girls and the birth of his daughter Pheonix.   LINKS: Mitch Tambo on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mitchtambo/  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“If we don't end war, war will end us.”H.G. WellsAs true as it was back in 1936, it is still true today. And whilst the human cost of war is undeniable, not often considered is the environmental damage that comes with it. Today we draw from a recently run forum, which looked at how the climate movement can show solidarity for the Palestinian cause, particularly with the latest round of violence, death, and destruction in Gaza.We look at how a colonial, extractivist mindset has shaped the relationship with Palestinian land, the connection to the experience in Australia, how climate change is being driven by the carbon bootprint of militaries, and some of the impacts of militarism on land and water in Palestine.We hear from:Rihab Charida, a digital story teller, filmmaker and producer from Safsaf, Safad region in the Upper Galilee, Palestine.Pablo Brait, a Jewish campaigner and community organiser who has been fighting for climate justice and against coal and gas expansions for over 15 years.Asseel Tayah, a Palestinian born and raised artist and activist telling stories of home and having to leave it.Danya Jacobs, an environmental lawyer in Naarm, and a human rights activist doing accompaniment and solidarity when visiting Palestine/Israel.Boe Spearim, a Gamilaraay and Kooma man, podcaster and activist based in Brisbane who has been involved in both for over 10 yearsFahimah Badrulhisham from the Muslim Collective, architect and climate justice campaignerElise West from the Medical Association for the Prevention of War.With thanks to Medical Association for the Prevention of War, Friends of the Earth, Action Aid, Muslim Collective, 350.org, Tipping Point, and Democracy in Colour for their assistance in the production of this show.Featuring music from Australian producer, Monkey Marc, with his track, Emergency.Earth Matters #1430 was produced by Phil Evans.Produced on Gunaikurnai Land.

This episode will dive into the history of some of the world's first astronomers, exploring how their knowledge has been passed down for more than 60,000 years. We are going to the southern hemisphere to learn about Australia's Indigenous astronomy, and the impact it has on our world today. Our guest today is Peter Swanton! Peter is a Gamilaraay man from Mackay, Queensland, an astrophysics graduate, and cultural astronomer. He is actively involved in Indigenous astronomy, outreach, and research, and has a passion for the challenging yet critical subject of dark sky preservation. Peter will highlight the scientific importance of Indigenous star knowledge and the challenges and opportunities in preserving that history. Join us as we hear the stories of Australia's Indigenous Peoples, why constellations and star clusters are so impactful, and how issues like light pollution threaten the very field of astronomy itself. There is a LOT to learn in this episode!Key Takeaways: The Indigenous Peoples of Australia didn't have a written language, they were only able to pass along information via spoken word, song, dance, and stories. There are an estimated 273 different language groups across Australia.  While not all stars can be viewed from both hemispheres, all the zodiac constellations are viewable from either. Although, they will be upside down depending on which hemisphere you are familiar with. The Emu in the Sky is a popular example of how astronomy was used practically by the Indigenous Peoples. Depending on what direction the Emu was facing, it helped give insight towards Emu life patterns.  Creation stories are stories that are passed down that talk about the physical existence as well as store important information. A popular story about Australia's constellation the Southern Cross tells the story of the first person to die on Earth.  A songline is one of many paths across the land (or sometimes the sky). Embedded within traditional song cycles, dance rituals, stories, and artistic expressions, these pathways enable individuals to traverse vast distances while reciting the songs that describe landmarks, water sources, natural features, and sometimes stars and constellations. These routes serve as crucial connections between Native group ancestral lands, carrying intricate geographical, mythological, and cultural information giving directions on how to travel across Australia to visit other Indigenous groups.  Light pollution is quickly starting to impact our dark skies. Due to light from cities and satellites, it is harder than ever before to see the stars and galaxies with the naked eye. Light pollution is not only affecting dark sky preservation, but is also adversely affecting our vision, bird migration patterns, and newborn sea turtles. Peter's message to younger generations is to pursue what makes you happy.

It's a demoralising and exhausting time for a lot of First Nations people. Some leaders and thinkers - like Gamilaraay man Jacob Birch - have been advocating for self-determination and nation-building for a long time, having been burnt by enmeshment with colonial institutions. Jacob is one of the first recipients of the John Reid Fellowship which funds meaningful projects in the world of grain. We talk to him about native grasses and the opportunities they present for healing country and community. https://www.yaamarraandyarral.com.au/ https://www.grainz.org.au/john-reid-fellowship https://www.instagram.com/yaamarrayarral/ https://www.instagram.com/_grainz_/ https://www.instagram.com/shingi_nyabonda/ https://www.instagram.com/pippakjames/ Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.

In 2017, after two years on the wagon, Clinton was frustrated at the lack of adult drink options that weren't alcoholic and launched Sobah in response. The business is on a mission to champion Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture, native foods and well-being, and through their unique range of brews, help to reduce the stigma around socialising sober. From producing limited edition drinks in collaboration with musicians like Peking Duk to opening Australia's first dedicated non-alcoholic brewery, Sobah is growing fast, just like its category. In this chat, Clinton shares his tips on how to be a better listener, what businesses can do to move away from just ticking boxes when it comes to supporting First Nations people and provides some valuable insights on the Voice referendum.Links from the episode:Sobah BeveragesShopify Plus (sponsored)Signet (sponsored)Questions answered:How can businesses approach supporting first nations people authentically?What's the social giving aspect to Sobah?

The massacre of 28 Aboriginal people in 1838 was the first and only time in Australia when white people were arrested, charged and prosecuted for the mass killing of First Nations people. Those people killed at Myall Creek Station in northern NSW were women, children and elderly men known as Wirrayaraay, a tribal clan of the Gamilaraay nation. But while some publications held the perpetrators to account, our papers did not. 185 years on, The Sydney Morning Herald confronts the brutality of its own coverage of the Myall Creek massacre and two subsequent trials.  Today, editor of The Sydney Morning Herald Bevan Shields, columnist Peter FitzSimons and chief reporter Jordan Baker on attempting to right the wrongs of the past.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 If you're yet to hear Mitch perform 'You're the voice", I beg you to head to the link at the bottom and listen. Carrying the message of unification, love and kindness. Culture is not foreign to Mitch who imbeds a celebration of it into every facet of life as tools to build identity and a strong sense of place. For him living and breathing culture is the start middle and end of it.An articulate, straight talker he sheds light on why everyone deserves a chance to not only survive but to thrive.  His super-power-story-telling ability notches up a few ranks when on stage and over the last few years he has found a platform for passing on knowledge through song and dance. Nerves and awe aside, Jade manages to dig a little into the psyche of this incredible individual, who without question shows us why the first nations people of this country were not hunters and gatherers but the most purposeful people to have ever walked.Show NotesMa-wollagoolabah - self, family, communityFalling in love with his identity and eagerly celebrating this in a respectful and authentic wayThe value of being raised by a strong single motherPublicly honoring women to the point of reverenceBeing relentless in our desire to keep talking to convey a message of transparencyCircle people - we are connected to everything and everything is connected to usCan song and dance as mediums take their place as a much needed storytelling toolsEmojis are an ancient format Humans disconnection from spirit, soul and heartBeing the most connected and the most disconnected simultaneouslyHolidays = connection to the natural world.

Mitch Tambo has reinterpreted the classic Christmas song Silent Night in Gamilaraay language. “Silent Night is that song that we all had to do when we were in school. You can't escape it. You've got to sing it… I thought it would be great to bring the spirit of Christmas and the spirit of my people and put them together.” - Mitch Tambo

Long before local authorities tried to ban sliced bread, Australia was home to the world's first bakers. Grindstones, some 65,000 years old, suggest Indigenous communities have been baking for millennia and there's an amazing effort to bring back this cultural knowledge and revive Indigenous grains. While Australia has had a fraught relationship with locally grown wheat, there's a growing movement to embrace Australian heritage grains, backed by open-minded chefs who want to knead such enduring flour into ultra-local pasta, pizza and bread.  This episode features Jacob Birch, Gamilaraay mari and researcher; Aunty Bernadette Duncan, Kamilaroy woman and coordinator of the Garragal Women's Language and Culture Network; Dr Angela Pattison, lead researcher on Indigenous Grasslands for Grains; Kerrie Saunders, Gomeroi woman and technician on Indigenous Grasslands for Grains; Paul Farag, executive chef of Nour and AALIA; Luke Finlay, Operations Manager of  Wholegrain Milling Co; and Paul van Reyk, author of True to the Land: A History of Food in Australia.  Image by Alana Dimou.

Welcome to Episode 1087 Cynthia Chaplin interviews Gary Green, in this installment of Voices, on the Italian Wine Podcast. More about today's guest: Mt Yengo is a unique venture. Started by Gary Green and Ben Hansberry, Mt Yengo was created to bring the culture and values of the First Nations People of Australia and fuse them with the more recent culture surrounding wine: to create not only a wine brand, but a true community entered around wine. A community that values bridging the cultural divide, instilling cultural understanding, and embracing reconciliation and diversity. Gary Green is a Gamilaraay and Githabul man from New South Wales, whose father was a prominent businessman and leader in the Aboriginal community. Gary has inherited his father's business acumen, entrepreneurial spirit, and social justice orientation, and has employed these traits in the food and beverage space. He founded a premium Australian Wagyu wholesaler called Mr Wagyu Beef, as well as Gondwana Wines in 2016, which was rebranded as Mt Yengo Wines in 2019. Mt Yengo has always featured Aboriginal art on its labels. In 2021, the winery announced that Wayne Quilliam, who had been the featured artist on the labels, would join the team in a permanent role as a director. This is an extension of Mt Yengo's mission to include their artists in the commercial success of the winery, as they have been giving a portion of the proceeds of each bottle sold to the artists for years. Mt Yengo also gives a portion of the proceeds of each bottle sold to the National Indigenous Culinary Institute, which is a program of national significance to create highly skilled Indigenous chefs.

Regarding leadership, concepts of my Gamilaraay tribes (as Fresh Water people) include the people who say no (Gamil = no and Array = people). This translates to everything we need is inside of us – saying no to outside influence and checking with self first.Growing up on the Gold Coast, his focus has been the specialised educational arena of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and services.

Saturday 10 July 2021: Reggae superstars UB40 keep it fresh after four decades, an emerging songwriter on how music can heal Country, and 50 years since the world lost Louis "Satchmo" Armstrong.

Thelma Plum is an absolute legend. Not only is the proud 25-year-old Gamilaraay woman an award-nominated, chart-topping, history-making singer and song-writer, but she's also a total beauty obsessive and officially the first EVER Australian and indigenous ambassador for hair care brand Herbal Essences. We bloody love to see it. We were lucky enough to (virtually) sit down with Thelma to chat about what it means to her to be a beauty ambassador and how she started her love of beauty (thanks Granny!), took a deep-dive into her makeup, skin and hair routine, and spoke about how she's coping with COVID-19 impacting her health and what was meant to be a big year of touring. You'll hear all about her love of ‘80s makeup, how she got a handle on her skin, and the hair product she's happily using as a perfume (sorry for revealing your secret, Thelma!)Also in this ep, we're helping the guys (and gals) who just don't know where to start with skincare. Think: Simple routines and not-fussy products. Bettina has discovered the body lotion she just can't stop using, and Carli's MVP may be a great discovery for all.Oh and guys before you get to the good stuff!
