Activists walk for recognition Southern Highland News 16/01/2009 A GROUP of activists is walking from Sydney to Canberra to call for indigenous sovereignty and an end of the Federal Government’s intervention into Northern Territory Aboriginal communities.
The walkers will arrive in Moss Vale today and continue their 17-day walk to Parliament House tomorrow, stopping at Penrose tomorrow night.
“Aboriginal Australia has been battling for over 200 years,” said Darren Bloomfield of the Aboriginal Tent Embassy established in Sydney to launch the walk…………….
“The Federal Government has been hacking away at Aboriginal Land Rights with the NT Intervention and now compulsory leases if Aboriginal communities want to receive basic services. The land grab has to stop.”
The walkers are also protesting proposals to dump nuclear waste in the Northern Territory.
