January 26 is a day to stand alongside First Nations peoples calling for change.
The date represents dispossession, oppression, genocide, ecocide and loss.
For many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, it is a day of mourning and a commemoration of hundreds of years of survival and resistance.
The fight to protect nature is strongest when it is guided by First Nations voices, knowledge and wisdom.
Today is a critical time to stand in solidarity.
The future we fight for is only possible with land & water rights and self-determination for First Nations peoples.
How to show support on Jan 26 -
> Attend an Invasion Day/Survival Day/Day of Mourning event
> Pay the rent – make donations to First Nations peoples and causes
> Listen and amplify First Nations voices
