Indigenous Quotes A-Z by Author |
Citizenship
has not delivered Indigenous Australians the same quality of life other Australians
expect. Basic human rights involve health, housing, education, employment, economic
opportunity, and equality before the law, and respect for cultural identity and
cultural diversity. These human rights must be capable of being enjoyed otherwise
they are empty gestures.

It's a very Aboriginal thing to do, to give younger people greater responsibilities
within the community as they become able to take those responsibilities on. It
is a culturally appropriate transfer of roles that involves respect in both directions..
from the younger to the older and the older to the younger.

We
must respect each other's right to choose a collective destiny, and the opportunity
to develop the legal and political rights for Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples
so that we may enjoy the right to maintain our culture, our heritage and our land,
as a united Australia.

The true essence of reconciliation is more than making friends with nonindigenous
people. Our motto is united Australia, one that respects the land and the heritage
of its indigenous peoples and provides justice and equity for all. I think reconciliation
is about changing the structures that govern us and trying to influence opinion
leaders in whatever way we can.

For
Indigenous Australians, equal rights and citizenship have not always translated
into full participation in Australian society. All Indigenous Australians have
only been counted in the census since the 1967 Referendum. Even so, State protection
and welfare laws continued to control the lives of Indigenous Australians and
denied them equal rights, well into the 1970's.

We have reached a pivotal time in Indigenous affairs when for the first time,
national attention is being paid to the horror of Indigenous family violence in
this country. For the
first time, an Australian Prime Minister has held a summit in the national capital
to listen to concerns and ideas on this issue from a group of Indigenous leaders.
