We've been talking in the last few episodes about food, plants, animals and Indigenous struggles for land. Today, an official ceasefire comes into effect in Gaza, a deal that the powerful US imperialist and zionist colonial invaders have been forced to make with the besieged Indigenous resistance fighters who they were unable to eliminate after almost 15 months of genocidal bombardment.As Palestinian writer and organiser Tara Alami wrote in October 2023: ‘true decolonisation includes lifting the siege, halting military aid and the weapons trade, ending the occupation of Palestinian land — and liberation from Zionist settler colonialism and imperialism in Palestine and the region at large'. ‘A ceasefire' she writes ‘is the first demand in a long, unwavering struggle for liberation'.The struggle for land back and return continues, as it does for indigenous people all over the world.On this continent, one such struggle is that of the Larrakia people in Lee Point, Northern Territory.Today you'll hear from Laniyuk, one of a small group of Larrakia women who are running the campaign to return Lee Point to the Larrakia people.Laniyuk is a Larrakia, Kungarakan, Gurindji and French political creative whose art practice is grounded in cultural, language and land reclamation. She writes and performs poetry, speculative fiction, short memoir and is a visual artist. She gives lectures, moderates panels and runs workshops. We featured her poem titled ‘Only Words' on Episode Five of Season Two.

This week we hear about two campaigns at the forefront of opposition to the military expansion on this continent. ‘Native Title Rockets' Campaign Coordinator and documentary Director Rocky speaks with Priya Kunjan (Thursday Breakfast) about Southern Launch's Koonibba rocket testing range that has begun commercial operation with its first rocket launch this week on Kokatha lands near Ceduna, South Australia. Kokatha elder Aunty Sue Haseldine brings us a call out for supporters to protect country from damage by the rocket testing operations. Then we hear an interview from Phuong Tran (Tuesday Breakfast) with Larrakia, Kungarakan, Gurindji and French political creative Laniyuk about the sacred lands of the Larrakia people, which are currently under threat of being destroyed by Defence Housing Australia. Binybara 'Lee Point' near Darwin is an area of deep cultural significance to the Larrakia Peoples and is also an internationally-significant site for migratory shorebirds and home to the rare and endangered Gouldian Finch. Larrakia people are being supported by community groups to have Lee Point protected and returned to traditional custodianship, after the Federal government gave Defence Housing Australia permission to develop the site 800 homes in 2018. Last week Environmental Justice Australia made an application to the Aboriginal Areas Protection Authority (AAPA) to recognise sacred sites in the Lee Point development zone, including the Danggalaba Dreaming track, a sacred waterway and traditional camping places and ceremonial grounds on behalf of Larrakia Danggalaba Traditional Owner Tibby Quall.Support the campaign by signing the petition to Return Lee Point to the Care of Larrakia People.
Desmond Campbell is a proud Gurindji and Alawa-Ngalakan man from the Northern Territory and is the CEO of Welcome to Country with a background in consulting, social policy and Government services. Desmond joined Welcome to Country to continue to build a platform that is First Nations led and operated, contributing to economic independence of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and by sharing the world's oldest continuous living cultures and languages by First Nations people on their terms and cultural integrity. Our yarn starts with Desmond sharing his own identity and the proud legacy of his family which flows through his blood. It weaves through to his role at Welcome to Country, why this organisation exists and how it serves its stakeholders. And it ends with a powerful and emotional vision for the future. For those of us who believe we should be proud and fiercely protective of the oldest living civilisation in the world, through this interview, Desmond opens a door which he invites us to walk through. Highlights: Desmond shares his family background including his legacies from both his mother's and father's side. He highlights on his father's side his relationship to Vincent Lingiari, his Great Grandfather, who Paul Kelly's song “From Little Things Big Things Grow” is about; and his mother's Uncle who was awarded a Member of the British Empire Medal for, amongst other things, diagnosing leprosy in Aboriginal people throughout the Northern Territory We talk about the importance of identity and Desmond shares his approach to leadership and his mission to carry forward his cultural legacy through his role at Welcome to Country He shares his view on leading with emotion despite being told that it might not be appropriate and we discuss the human value of emotion in leadership Desmond takes us through some of his childhood experiences which made him feel like a second class citizen, but contrasts this with his deepening curiosity and pride as he started learning about the history and legacy of his mob He talks about how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have always led events to connect language and culture and connect to our past so we can move forward together. By acknowledging our traumatic past and walking forward together Desmond describes himself as a “walking billboard”, sharing a couple of stories about being approached at the pub by two different non-Indigenous people separately to talk about things related to his Aboriginal identity. He explains that while he doesn't mind it, there is an emotional cost to him of engaging, which is why he offers some advice to non-indigenous people who might want to ask questions of or discuss relevant issues with an Aboriginal person Desmond introduces what Welcome to Country is all about and its purpose – to support greater economic independence for First Nations entrepreneurs, sharing the language and culture with the world on their terms He shares what Welcome to Country has achieved so far since launching in 2019 during the bushfires and leading into the pandemic He tells us about Welcome to Country's new location in Glebe and his vision for what the space will enable as a vibrant cultural hub, including a shop. He highlights the Open Day that is planned (dates tbc will be shared) Desmond explains the challenge of balancing cultural integrity with the need to educate those organisations that want to be connected with Welcome to Country and more widely with Aboriginal culture Desmond's dream: he shares his vision of what he'd love Welcome to Country to look like in 5 years time, but he also shares what he'd love our world to look like in that time. Desmond closes the episode by sharing what Australians who voted YES in the referendum on the Voice can do to continue to show their support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Acknowledgement of Country// Headlines// Hume For Palestine is a community action group made up of residents of Hume Council, and is currently demanding the immediate closure of a local manufacturer in Campbellfield, Heat Treatment Australia (HTA). The 'defence' department states that HTA provides crucial heat treatment process for components of F-35 Joint Strike Fighters, which are being used by the israeli occupation force (IOF) in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. We were joined today by Hume For Palestine member Waseem Razvi to discuss the campaign. Waseem is the founder of Islamic Research + Education Academy and an activist at Alliance Against Islamophobia, which works to challenge Islamophobia, assisting and empowering affected individuals and communities.// Amber, a white queer trans person based in Naarm, caught up with Priya yesterday to talk about autonomous queer and trans resistance against the pinkwashing of cops, corporations and colonialism at pride in the wake of a successful but brutally policed protest against the inclusion of Victoria Police in the annual Midsumma parade last Sunday. At this event, queer and trans community members were violently assaulted by cops at the march, with footage circulating of protestors being slapped and choked by police. Since Sunday, radical queer and trans groups including Queer Killjoys and Trans Queer Solidarity have published some important reflections on exposing pinkwashing and reclaiming queer and trans self-expression from the predatory creep of diversity and inclusion approaches to interconnected forms of systemic violence. RISE have consistently called for a boycott of Midsumma given the festival's pinkwashing of policing, Australia's immigration detention system, and the images of Australia's major political parties - you can read their 2024 statement here. Trust us, our pink dollars are better spent on local initiatives that genuinely support our communities, including Beyond Bricks and Bars, fundraisers organised by Husk Housing Support and on the work that RISE does for queer and trans ex-detainees.// Larrakia, Kungarakan, Gurindji and French writer and performer Laniyuk joins us to continue the conversation started with Phuong on this week's episode of Tuesday Breakfast about the campaign to return Lee Point to Larrakia care.

Sarrita King almost fell into painting. Her late father was the highly respected artist, William King Jungala, a man from the Gurindji clan. Before he died in 2007, he passed on to Sarrita and her sister Tarrise King, a love of art, community and storytelling. Sarrita lives in Garramilla, or Darwin, with her partner and her two young children, painting amongst the chaos of family life. With a career as a professional artist spanning almost 15 years, Sarrita's work is held in collections around the world. In today's Interview With An Artist, we chat about how Sarrita left her journalism degree to pursue art; her manager Keith and the tight knit bond between Sarrita, Tarrise and Keith; and how Sarrita loves her galleries so much and how deep the relationship is with them.

First the history of medical transplants that goes way back further in history than you might imagine, and then we find out the history of the Berndt Collection of notebooks and artefacts gathered in the 1940s and why they are currently inaccessible to the Gurindji people who are the subject of the collection.
Roland and Catherine Berndt went to Gurindji country back in the 1940s. Now almost eighty years later, why are their research notebooks from their time with the Gurindji and the artefacts gathered during their time there not accessible to the Gurindji people? The thirty year embargo on the Berndt Collection put in place by Catherine Berndt on her death raises questions about whether such an embargo should have been permitted in the first place. The Gurindji urgently want access to the materials while elders who can speak to the materials still can.
Wattie Creek entered Australian folklore as the birthplace of the Aboriginal land-rights movement when Prime Minister Gough Whitlam granted the deeds to the land of the Gurindji people and symbolically poured the red dirt into the hands of Vincent Lingiari. Paul Kelly and Kev Carmody`s iconic Australian protest song tells a surprisingly unknown story of human struggle and the 8-year long fight for justice that would pave the way for future change.Dara Hession plays a list of powerful songs throughout this podcast to help tell this story, including Beds Are Burning, Solid Rock, and From Little Things Big Things Grow.

This week Eugenia Flynn and Tasnim Sammak join us to explore the shared reality of erasure and history of struggle against settler-colonialism, genocide and oppression between Blak Australia and Palestine. Within that struggle emerges a shared decolonial solidarity between Palestinian and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples where Tasnim and Eugenia talk about a need to move beyond 'reciprocal solidarity'. These issues are discussed in their recent article Blak Australia to Palestine: solidarity in decolonial struggle published on Indigenous X.Eugenia Flynn is a writer, academic, arts worker and community organiser. Eugenia is Aboriginal, Chinese Malaysian and Muslim and she works within her multiple communities to create change through art, literature and community engagement. Tasnim Sammak is a PhD candidate at Monash University's Faculty of Education, a single mum of two boys and a local Palestinian Muslim organiser.We also hear a poem by Larrakia, Kungarrakan, Gurindji and French writer and poet Laniyuk who performed at the Blak-Palestinian poetry night in Narrm/Melbourne on June 26th. Blak and Palestinian poets, artists and activists came together for a special evening of poetry, performances and discussions. You can hear the full broadcast of the night, and by extension all the poems, on the Salaam Radio Show at 3CR.
The English language is an import to this country. As with the foreign flora and fauna brought by the boats to the shores, language spread where the speakers settled; thrown over like a blanket on the same bed where the pillows of the ‘dying race’ were being smoothed.And yet, we survived.Indigenous poets who have been published since owe a lot to the landmark publication of Oodgeroo Noonuccal’s 1964 collection We are Going, the first published collection of poetry from an Aboriginal person in this country. In the time since, poets have ‘written back’ into popular literary spaces with playful ways of using the English language and tongue-in-cheek refusal to adhere to those structures and conventions. The novel uses of Aboriginal English play with the limits of language to rework its meaning into the written and spoken word. Each poet is writing into a growing body of literary works dealing with the ongoing systems of oppression by challenging but also poking fun at the structures that uphold them.In this episode, Alice Bellette (Palawa) speaks with poets Alison Whittaker (Gomeroi) and Laniyuk (Larrakia, Kungarrakan and Gurindji) about their work, as well as experiences with communities that foster the literary voices of Indigenous people in this country. We also talk about the ‘coding’ of language, a strategy poets use to articulate different meanings for different audiences, usually in ways that privilege Indigenous audiences. We reflect on what this might mean for the various audiences of this kind of literature.You don’t need to be a regular reader of poetry to get something out of this episode, just bring an open mind and a value for the connections between humans.

After arriving in Darwin by bicycle, Charlie's 19-year-old father, from a well-to-do Victorian family, became ill and ended up in hospital where he met his bride-to-be, a Gurindji woman. Charlie's Dad was determined their different backgrounds wouldn't keep them apart. This story was first told at SPUN Stories, a live storytelling podcast created in Darwin, hosted by Jess Ong with production by Johanna Bell.

Our history is full of bold acts of defiance — from the 1938 Day of Mourning, to the Cummeragunja walk-off, the Pilbara strike, the Palm Island strike, the Gurindji walk-off and the longest continuous protest ever staged.
Australia's largest avocado nursery turns its attention to the NT; Gurindji traditional owners have been granted native title rights to Wave Hill station.
On this day in 1966, Gurindji stockmen and their families — led by elder Vincent Lingiari — walked off the job at the Wave Hill station in the NT in protest against poor pay and conditions — and for the return of their traditional lands. What followed was an epic eight-year battle. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

A Handful of Sand the story of the Wavehill Walk-off and the struggle of land rights by the Gurindji people is the first book by Charlie Ward. We talk about the book and his reflections on the importance of the struggle for present day Australia. Liz Ross tells us about the programme for the Union Activism & History Conference on Oct 15. A programme of historic and present day struggles with a pinch of theory. Kevin Healy goes through the week with a satirical brush. Jacob Grech gets out of his tent at the Close Pine Gap demonstration to give us an update. Dr Michael Borgas from the CSIRO and a union delegate gives us an idea of what is happening for workers at the CSIRO.
Next week, Australians will look back at one the most significant moments in the struggle for Indigenous rights. August 23 marks the 50th anniversary of the Wave Hill walk-off when Vincent Lingiari led a group of 200 Aboriginal workers and their families off a Northern Territory pastoral station in protest against their exploitative pay and working conditions. Labor's spokesperson for human services, Linda Burney, who at the election became the first Indigenous woman to win a seat in the lower house, tells Michelle Grattan the events of Wave Hill were incredibly important and continue to be. Burney says the actions of Lingiari and the Gurindji people at Wave Hill were “heroic” and should be “fundamental to everyone's education in Australia through the school curriculum”. Burney also traces the modern land rights movement to the walk-off. “The Gurindji with the support of unions and many others - non-Aboriginal people - came to the south and presented their case about living conditions, about rights to country, rights to culture, and the south and the north came together and over a long period of time eventually delivered land rights to the Gurindji,” she says. Consititutional recognition of First Australians Acknowledging roadblocks in the way of constitutional recognition of Indigenous Australians, Burney says she doesn't want to “entertain the notion that it can't happen”. “I am very disappointed that the Referendum Council has now taken the view that they can't deliver a report until mid next year.” “I am still very optimistic that there will be a referendum. It will not be for the 50th anniversary [of the 1967 referendum]. That symbolism is lost but I do think there is still an appetite for a referendum at some point. I am sick of this being kicked down the road. If the Referendum Council says ‘mid next year' then lets for heaven's sake set a definite date so we know what we're working towards and get a set of words, a question, so we know what we're going to be talking about,” she says.
On 22nd August 1966, Vincent Lingiari, led a walk-off of 200 Aboriginal stockmen, domestic servants, and their families from the Wave Hill cattle station in the Northern Territory. The protest was about the poor work and pay conditions on the cattle station. But it was much more than that. It was also a struggle for Indigenous land rights and it changed Australia forever. Let’s see how ‘from little things big things grow’. Check out the YouTube video of the Paul Kelly and Kev Carmody song ‘From Little Things Big Things Grow’. The didgeridoo solo at the end is pretty darned cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_ndC07C2qw Also check out the original petition from the Gurindji people to the Governor-General Lord Casey: http://indigenousrights.net.au/land_rights/wave_hill_walk_off,_1966-75/a_petition_to_the_governor-general
