In this
episode of Living the Dream Dave (@withsobersenses) chats with
Camilla and Eliza from Sovereignty Solidarity.
Sovereignty Solidarity
describes their Facebook page as follows:
‘We aim to
support First Nations(FN) initiatives for self determination, sovereignty,
treaties, and moving forward. We take action based on our understanding of
these perspectives and aim to concretely support FN initiatives. We are a
non-FN specific page because we believe non-FN peoples have specific
de-colonisation work that we need to do, and that the burden for this should be
placed on FN peoples. We welcome input, criticism and support from FN people’
Camilla and
Eliza have provided the following relevant links:
First

Eliza would
like the following qualification added to the title and the podcast: ‘sometimes
dominant society needs a slap in the face, like on the 26th January, but
sometimes dominant society needs a more gentle-gentle approach. Learning about
the history of this country, the legacy of colonialism and our transplanted
place on
this land can be a hard journey and if people need empathy through this process
it is other non FN people who should do this work.’
