Income Management and the Racial Discrimination Act
Hey I was researching for the prayers that I’m going to be leading in the Abbey tomorrow morning and look what I found!
This is the Parliamentary Library’s analysis of how the ‘Stronger Futures’ legislation complies or does not comply with the Racial Discrimination Act.
And surprise surprise! Aboriginal people are over-represented in the government’s compulsory income management schemes. Thus, it probably violates the RDA.
Have a read if Indigenous Rights is your thing.

New video about the Northern Territory Intervention, which has just been extended a further ten years. This is a serious curtailment of Aboriginal civil rights and an assault on native title.
