January 26. Australia Day. Invasion It marks the anniversary of the 1788 arrival of the First Fleet of British Ships at Port Jackson, in New South Wales, the raising of the Flag of Great Britain at that site by Governor Arthur Phillip, the invasion of Australia and the start of genocide against the original owners of this land. January 26 is a day of mourning and a day of struggle, marked by big, loud, powerful Invasion Day rallies right across the country. But the struggle for Aboriginal justice also extends to justice at work, and one of the industries where these issues come to the fore, is in higher education. Universities have amongst the highest rates of Aboriginal employment, but it's also a sector that is so exploitative of workers' intellectual property. Arrende woman, Celeste Liddle, is the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Organiser for the NTEU and we had a long chat about the sector and Aboriginal worker rights. 

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 76-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 23,478 on turnover of $7.2-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan moved higher by more than 140 points Friday after the Federal Reserve cut its key interest rates as expected, sparking a rally among tech stocks on the U.S. markets overnight. The local bellwether electronics sector attracted most of the market's attention throughout the trading session, while old economy and financial stocks largely lost their luster, capping the gains on the broader market. Thousands march in Taipei for better wildlife conservation Animal rights groups took to the streets on Sunday to appeal for better stray animal management and improved wildlife conservation. According to Taiwan Walk for Wildlife, around 2-thousand people participated in the event in Taipei. The 2024 Walk for Wildlife, a one-hour march that looped (環行) through streets near the Legislative Yuan, began after TWW members, wildlife conservation experts, and legislators from across party lines delivered remarks. T-W-W says the goal of the march was to get the government to improve the management and reduction of stray dogs and cats and strengthen the management of stray dogs in ecological hotspots. The protesters presented a petition to the head of the Ministry of Agriculture's Animal Welfare Department, who responded by saying that authorities "respect and understand" the demands and will promote those that have gained social consensus, while also tightening stray dog control in some areas. Washington Post: Trump Tells Putin to Avoid Escalation in Ukraine US President-Elect Donald Trump has told his Russian counterpart to avoid an escalation in Ukraine according to a Washington Post report.

Netherlands Demonstrators Detained After Soccer Clashes Police have detained dozens of people for taking part in a demonstration in central Amsterdam that had been outlawed following violent clashes targeting fans of an Israeli soccer club. Amsterdam's mayor banned all demonstrations over the weekend in the aftermath of the scenes of youths on scooters and on foot attacking Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters (支持者) on Thursday and Friday. It was widely condemned as a violent outburst of antisemitism in the Dutch capital. Local media reports showed police detaining one man Sunday who was taking part in a small demonstration on the central Dam Square. Police said on X they detained more than 50 people. UK Jamie Oliver Children's Book Withdrawn A children's book written by British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has been withdrawn from sale after it was criticized for causing offense to Indigenous Australians. The Guardian newspaper reported that the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Education Corporation blasted “Billy And The Epic Escape” for employing a series of tropes about Indigenous Australians, including their relationships with the natural and spiritual worlds. The group criticized one of the subplots (次要情節) of the fantasy novel, which tells the story of an Indigenous girl living in foster care, for contributing to the “erasure, trivialisation (使顯得不重要), and stereotyping of First Nations peoples and experiences.” Following the criticism, Oliver apologized “wholeheartedly.” That was the I.C.R.T.

Introduction to 2023 National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards (NATSIAA) and Liquid Light. - ノーザンテリトリーの首都ダーウィンのホリデーシーズンのイベント、全国先住民アートアウォードとリキッドライトについてカイリーさんのレポートです。

A life-size sculpted tree complete with parrots and a wandering dog won the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Art Awards (NATSIAA). Every element has ceremonial significance, says Thu' and Apalech artist Keith Wikmunea, from Western Cape York.  Brenda L Croft's 19th Century-style photograph tells a multi-layered story of family bonds and forced child removal. While Anne Nginyangka Thompson's ceramics contain a message about Anangu self determination and the everyday consequences  of colonisation. Mexican-Canadian media artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer is inspired by the  19th century computer pioneer Charles Babbage, who believed the air surrounding us to be a ‘vast library' containing every sound and word spoken. His artwork Atmospheric Memory uses technology to turn vibrations in the atmosphere into something viewers can see, hear and even touch.

He is a teacher and has been working with the WSL over the last few years to shine more of a spotlight on Aboriginal culture. In reconciliation week this year he did a podcast with Aint that Swell where he and smivy went hard with some truth telling, real talk and solutions of how culture can bring surfers and people together.

A descendant of the Kokatha people, Frances was born in Adelaide and spent her childhood traveling, dancing, and living all around Australia while her father worked on the railways.

In this beautifully raw and personal interview, Frances talks about her journey into dance, her incredible career with Bangarra, and finding confidence in her own body.

04 January 2022 | Media release | Joint media release The Hon Scott Morrison MP Prime Minister The Hon Ken Wyatt AM MP Minister for Indigenous Australians The Morrison Government will build Ngurra, an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural precinct, on the shores of Lake Burley Griffin in the Parliamentary Triangle, on Ngunnawal country (Canberra). Ngurra, meaning ‘home', ‘country' or ‘place of belonging', will include a learning and knowledge centre, a national resting place to care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestral remains and a new home for the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS). Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the new $316.5 million precinct would take its place among Australia's premier institutions in the parliamentary triangle as a place of national pride and significance. “Ngurra is the realisation of a long-held desire to have a home for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and histories at the heart of our nation,” the Prime Minister said. “It will be a national landmark of the highest order, standing proudly for us all to celebrate, educate, reflect and commemorate. “It will be built in Commonwealth Place, on the primary axis in the Parliamentary Triangle – between Old Parliament House and the Australian War Memorial - demonstrating the importance and reverence this institution should hold. “It will be built fully in accordance with the proposal developed by AIATSIS and presented to Government for approval, as a result of their consultation processes.” “All Australians and visitors to our nation will be able to gain a deeper appreciation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' diversity and cultures, and the richness this offers our country. “This new world-class facility will contribute to our continuing journey of reconciliation, where Indigenous Australians can tell their stories, in the way they want, for all visitors to have a greater understanding of our shared history.” Minister for Indigenous Australians Ken Wyatt said the learning and engagement, exhibitions, research and curation that would occur at Ngurra would be significant acts of truth-telling. “At its heart will be a national resting place where the remains of Indigenous Australians taken from their country will be cared for until they are able to be returned to their communities,” Minister Wyatt said. “And in instances where provenance has been forgotten or erased, they will be cared for in perpetuity with dignity and respect. “As new home to AIATSIS, the precinct will also house and make accessible the world's largest collection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural and heritage items. “Ngurra will provide a new perspective on our shared history, as a significant moment for truth-telling, and a new place where the diversity of Indigenous Australia and one of the world's oldest living cultures will be celebrated.” An architectural design competition will be run in 2022 to develop an iconic design fitting for the location and that reflects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' aspirations, achievements and deep connection to Country.

(Image by Peter Walples-Crowe: Alpine Dingoes & Corroboree Frogs - both creatures found on Ngarigu Country) This week, Jessie has invited Peter Waples-Crowe and Luke George to discuss self-expression through art. Peter is a Ngarigo artist who shares with us his experience of the intersection between being Aboriginal and queer, and how he uses art to express this experience, as well as make sense of it, whilst using it as his own personal healing tool. Peter has been been a finalist several times in the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards as well as the Victorian Indigenous Art Awards. Our second guest, Luke George, who is an international artist, rope-worker and performer, shares with us on how he uses art to push the boundaries in the exploration of intimacy as an artist and in the process uncovers new layers in how the audience engages with the art. Luke has recently been appointed as Artistic Associate of Temperance Hall and is a recipient of a fellowship from Australian Council of the Arts.

Home by Christmas...that's the hope for many of us this Friday....after the nations leaders agree to reopen internal borders in time for quarantine-free Christmas travel. WA is the only state not to sign up to that deadline, but tonight will significantly ease restrictions at its border. We travel along the Nullabor to hear from communities about their excitement and fear about the border opening up. Also: * The Federal Government says it will create a new law enabling it to declare a national state of emergency.  It's one of the recommendations made by the Natural Disaster Royal Commission. * National cabinet has today announced its national vaccine strategy to roll out a mass program as soon as possible. * Less than a week before Scott Morrison is due to visit PNG the future of the country’s PM’s hangs in the balance after a mass walkout on his coalition government. * Aboriginal leaders have blasted inaction on reducing indigenous incarceration rates, at the National Aboriginal press Club's first televised speakers event in Darwin.    * International students who study in Australia have slammed today's announcement that ex-patriate Australians returning home will get priority over students stuck overseas. * It's an age old problem - but is the government's Jobmaker program increasing discrimination against older workers?

In Australia, you need to be 18 to vote, 16 to drive a car, 13 to get a Facebook account. But the current age of criminal responsibility is 10. An estimated several thousand children under 14 appear in court on criminal matters each year. The vast majority of these are of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander backgrounds. Apart from the undeniable long-term social costs, keeping young people in prison is also an enormous financial burden so where is the justification?

Stephen Parker is joined by Dr Sharlene Leroy-Dyer, Acting President of the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Postgraduate Association (NATSIPA) which is a national network of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander postgraduate students, non-Indigenous student supporters and Indigenous Elders and Alumni. NATSIPA's objective is to ensure that Indigenous Australians can access postgraduate education in a fair and equitable manner and it enables this by valuing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders diverse cultures and histories and supporting their control over their own and their family’s education. In this episode Sharlene discusses her lifelong commitment to learning, she has a PhD in management from the University of Newcastle and is currently completing a graduate certificate in tertiary education, management and governance, and the importance of advocating for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander post-graduate students at a national level. Sharlene and Stephen touch on the ways in which COVID-19 has disproportionately disrupted students in remote and rural areas where access to digital technology can be unreliable as well as the pitfalls of online learning which can lead to students feeling disconnected and isolated. They also discuss the importance of increasing funding for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students who are the most disadvantaged group in Australian society. For more information about NATSIPA, visit their website.

Since embarking on a creative path only a mere 15 years ago, Yolŋu artist Gunybi Ganambarr has been continuously praised for his weaving of Indigenous forms and traditional stories with a contemporary sensibility. He has been called a “revolutionary”, “genius” and “an innovator”, and has accumulated many accolades, including the 2018 National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Award (NATSIAA). But as Ganambarr explains in the podcast conversation, visual art was not the first form he gravitated towards. His foremost creative experience started as a didgeridoo player, which allowed him to travel nationally and internationally. Prior to becoming an artist, Ganambarr also spent 12 years as a builder, and he credits this experience with familiarising himself with the tools and materials that would later find their way into his creative practice. Gunybi discusses his 'pre-art' life, the experience of winning the 2018 NATSIAA, and the advice he has for younger artists.

When Luke Scholes talks about being a curator, he turns toward the origins of his role: he discusses how curating means to be ‘a carer of things’. For Scholes, this largely involves caring for art collections, through his role as Curator of Aboriginal Art at the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory (MAGNT). In this podcast Scholes unpacks his curatorial work, revealing how his position falls across three broad areas: facilitating the annual National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Awards, curating exhibitions, and maintaining and developing MAGNT’s Aboriginal art collection. It’s this third responsibility that Scholes particularly delves into. “It’s not just about acquiring more examples, it’s about acquiring the right examples,” he explains. “What a curator should seek to do is develop a really strong and historical record of art movements.” This podcast has been produced in partnership with the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory in recognition of the annual National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards.

Glenn Iseger-Pilkington likes to joke that he’s an “arts handyman”. Yet the phrase does have merit: he’s an artist and writer and has held various curatorial roles at the South Australian Museum, Western Australian Museum and the Art Gallery of Western Australia. Nowadays, he’s the lead consultant at Gee Consultancy, where he works with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists and arts workers. In this podcast Glenn, a Yamatji Nyoongar man from Western Australia with Dutch and Scottish migrant history, talks about his curatorial and consultancy roles, discussing how he sees himself less as a voice of authority and more as a conduit. He also talks about the experience of judging the 2018 National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art Awards and, finally, tells us what changes he’s noticed in the arts in Australia over the last 15 years — both for better and worse.

Carole Johnsons legacy is incredible. Carole grew up in Philadelphia, USA where she discovered her love for dance. She trained in ballet under Sydney Gibson King and later with British choreographer Antony Tudor. Carole graduated from the Juilliard School in New York in 1963. In 1966, Carole joined the Eleo Pomare Dance Company, as a dancer and an important advocate for African-American dance. Carole has danced in works including: The Angels Are Watching Over Me, Construction in Green, From the Soul, as Bessie Smith in Gin, Woman, Distress and as Angela Davis in Jailhouse Blues. Carole first visited Australia in an important time for the fight for rights and recognition of Australia’s First Nations people. It was in 1972, when the Eleo Pomare Dance Company performed for Adelaide Festival, that Carole was exposed the huge inequities in Australia between First Nation Australians and the rest of the population. While in Adelaide Carole was asked by the Australia Council for the Arts' Indigenous Officer, Jennifer Isaacs, to teach some dance workshops in the significant urban centre for Indigenous Australians, Redfern, Sydney. Carole’s advocacy and activism started in earnest, developing a deep appreciation and respect for Indigenous Australians. Carole was the founding director of the National Aboriginal and Islander Skills Development Council (NAISDA). Through a deepening relationship formed over a decade Carole worked with Yirrkala people from the Northern Territory and the Lardil people from Mornington Island (Kunhanha). In 1989, Carole founded the now world renowned Bangarra Dance Theatre. Carole Johnson was inducted into The Australian Dance Awards the Hall of Fame in 1999 for her work with NAISDA Dance College, AIDT and Bangarra Dance Theatre. Carole was also awarded an Australian Government Centenary medal recognising her contribution to Australia’s Indigenous community in 2003. This season produced in partnership with Ausdance Victoria.

Wendy French has worked in a variety of suicide prevention programs in Tasmania and throughout Australia. She was responsible for implementing a local site of a national suicide bereavement service in North West Tasmania, which she then managed for five years. 2009-2013). In addition to her “day job” providing Suicide Prevention and Mental Health training to workplaces throughout Tasmania, Wendy has created Talking About Suicide to assist people to have conversations with people at risk of or bereaved by suicide, and is an ambassador for local charity Stigma No More. Her attitude of “Tasmanians helping each other out” is evident in her use of her “spare time”, supporting individuals, families and communities after hours, on weekends, and in the middle of the night, travelling wherever she was needed and ensuring that anyone who needed information and support could get it, when they needed it. Following a suicide in Tasmania which had a terrible impact on a small rural community, Wendy was contacted by members of the community looking for help and volunteered her time and knowledge to support the local services and organisations. This, in turn, enabled them to mount an appropriate response, ensuring that those impacted had adequate and informed support. Wendy has been an active member of the Tasmanian Suicide Prevention Community Network and was involved in community consultations for the Tasmanian Suicide Prevention Strategy (2016-2020); the Australian Government Senate Inquiry into Suicide in Australia; the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Suicide Prevention Strategy; the Youth Suicide Prevention Plan for Tasmania; and the Suicide Prevention Workforce Development and Training Plan for Tasmania. She won the Tasmanian LiFE Awards Lifeline Outstanding Contribution Award in 2016 in recognition of her tireless suicide prevention and bereavement support work in Tasmania and throughout Australia. Wendy has also helped communities around Tasmania to develop plans to reduce suicide, and to build their capacity and resilience. While much of Wendy’s work was conducted as part of her employment, her commitment to going that extra mile has meant that individuals, families and communities suffering suicide loss receive the best possible care at the time of their greatest need, and makes her a worthy recipient of this LiFE Award. #ManyVoicesOneGoal #suicideprevention
