National Day of Action: Stop the NT Intervention

Anti-racism

On February 13, 2010 there will be a national day of action against the NT Intervention and for Aboriginal rights.
This will mark the 2nd anniversary of the Apology to the Stolen Generations, when Prime Minister Rudd committed the government to, "a future where this Parliament resolves that the injustices of the past must never, never happen again".
But ongoing NT Intervention policies reek of the same paternalism and commitment to assimilation that created the Stolen Generations.
The Intervention has been a $1.5 billion disaster. The government has taken control of Aboriginal lives and land - but has not yet built a single house. Shamefully, communities will not receive housing until they sign 40-year leases over their land.

* Justice for Mulrunji * Stop Indigenous deaths in custody * Stop police murder * Justice Now! * Thousands of people from all over Australia protested on December 20 2007 to demand an end to Aboriginal deaths in custody and justice for Mulrunji. In light of recent police violence in Aurukun and Palm Island, taking action against Aboriginal deaths in custody and for justice for Aboriginal people is crucial. Already the broad public response, including rallies, has forced the government to agree to a review of the Queensland DPP decision on the Mulrunji case.
