Thank you again to @IPAAVic for putting on such a great discussion to make your International Women’s Day event such a success.
Given most of 2020 was focused on COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts, IPAA Victoria is framing its International Women’s Day celebrations around the contribution of female leaders including @JillGallagherAO who played significant roles during the pandemic. https://t.co/WXMXZf8Oya

To trivialise all the atrocities that our people suffered and still suffer is hurtful and disrespectful to our First Peoples. These sorts of statements do little to aid reconciliation and just reinforce the view that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are not included.

It is disappointing that the top leader of our country tries to insinuate that the men on the First Fleet had it hard too. As an Aboriginal person it is discouraging that the Prime Minister can make a statement like that.

Right past wrongs: States take first steps towards Indigenous treaties. In Victoria the First Peoples' Assembly held their inaugural meeting in the State’s Parliament. @ngarrakatye @marcusbstewart @JillGallagherAO

Communities across Australia have had their say, as a panel takes its first steps towards negotiating treaties with First Nations people.

Why would any Aboriginal person align themselves with Andrew Bolt & provide fodder for his racist, toxic & divisive narratives? He denies Indigenous Australians are the First Australians, opposes recognition & reforms supporting self determination. #DarkEmu @SatPaper @mdavisqlder

Enjoyed listening to @JillGallagherAO and @GavinJennings talk about the importance of #treaty in Victoria. Having former @abcmelbourne man Jon Faine at our table was cool too. National Aboriginal Press Club a great initiative.

It would be respectful if the newly appointed Co-design mob for the Voice to Parliament advocate to Govt that the newly elected First Peoples Assembly of Victoria gets a seat at the Co-design table @mdavisqlder @tommayor11 @jason_mifsud
