The current government are not only about to cut deep into the
education sector but to all sectors of society.

The Council for Reconciliation the pinnacle of Social Justice
in this country was given a 25% cut before the budget was even
considered. The same bill was passed unopposed when it was
enacted in 1991, not even the current government opposed it
when they were in opposition. This hypocritical attitude must
be exposed.

We have to unite as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and
people from low socio-economic background throughout this
country and show our disgust at the present Social Justice
issues of the first peoples of this country!

We are calling Aboriginal and Torres Strait islanders and
people from low socio-economic backgrounds, performing artists
and activists to help send a strong unified message to the
current government!!!!

D-DAY IS AUGUST 20 (the day the budget is handed down).

WE NEED TO FIGHT FOR OUR FUTURE!
