The recent decision by Uniting Church to transform the former Sister Kate's into a "healing centre" was done without consulting the local yorgas (women) of Sister Kate's.
We encourage everyone to come down at 9:00am tomorrow, March 8th, to stand with the yorgas against potential church escalation.

CW: CW: Jamie Oliver, Racist stereotypes, First Nations, Stolen Generations, Cultural Appropriation
Jamie Oliver apologises after his children’s book is criticised for ‘stereotyping’ First Nations Australians
https://www.theguardian.com/food/2024/nov/09/jamie-oliver-apologises-after-childrens-book-criticised-for-stereotyping-first-nations-australians-ntwnfbI'm no expert on Indigenous people, but think even as a white person it should be easy to spot grotesque racism and not do it.
But somehow, Jamie Oliver didn't have a second thought about writing a book with cultural appropriation, magical negro meme bullshit, and kidnapping Indigenous children. Worse, he put it in a children's book he wrote that includes a character of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage.
The publisher, Penguin Random House UK, is going "Oops, my bad" about it. They're not saying how a children's book in the 21st century got all the way through their commissioning, editing, publishing, and promotional processes without anyone asking if it's good or harmful to go ahead with this breathtakingly racist garbage.

When I was a little kid in the 70s, I saw a tv news report about the Stolen Generations in Australia. I remember thinking it was so awful that little kids like me could be kidnapped from their parents by the church and government. I was grateful I lived somewhere where something like that would never happen.
All the while, I had no idea it was happening in Canada, too. And that my Dad and his siblings had been affected. And that it could very well have happened to my sister and me, too.
The last residential school didn't close down until after I'd graduated from university. And guess what? Kids are still being stolen by the Canadian government on a regular basis.

@blogdiva this was Australian govt policy for a hundred years.
White men raped the mothers and authorities took the kids.
The result was the Stolen Generations of kids, parents and communities traumatised.

Colonialism has mastered the crime of stealing our children for generations and then punishing and criticizing our parents and grandparents for how they originally raised children.
Then, they went ahead and stole, renamed & rebranded our sacred original parenting instructions as “attachment” parenting, “conscious” parenting, “gentle” parenting, “positive” parenting, and “child led” parenting.
It has been used as a tool of profit.
It has been used as a means of stealing babies from families, then forcing the mothers and fathers of those babies to take colonial based parenting courses in order to get their babies back. And those colonial based parenting courses are heavily twisted and skewed versions of our parenting instructions - but twisted and skewed so severely, so deeply, that they only accommodate and feed colonial agendas and systems.
It is a matter of indigenous parents today abiding to colonially twisted, and colonially backwards parenting “styles” in order to fit the criteria of being a “good parent.”
Here’s the thing though.
Residential schools, the 60’s scoop, the child welfare system, and every other colonial policy embedded in the colonial fabric of society was created to do just this.
Keep the children out of our families to continue the ongoing attempts of assimilation and genocide against our peoples.
Even today.
So rather than pushing for “attachment” parenting, “conscious” parenting, “gentle” parenting, “positive” parenting, and “child led” parenting let us open into, revitalize, maintain and relearn the original instructions of raising and nurturing children.
Let us heal and dissolve what generations of colonialism has embedded into our parenting styles.
May we do our best to continue that.
So we can continue to raise children in the ways that we were originally meant to….
For generations to come.
Because this is the least we can do for the children in our lives today.

The government is set to create a national commissioner to help improve outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. The announcement was made as the government delivered its annual Closing the Gap report on the anniversary of the national apology to the Stolen Generation. https://www.sbs.com.au/news/podcast-episode/closing-the-gap-report-reveals-ongoing-trauma-and-challenges/4brulck8x #auspol #auslaw #IndigenousIP #childrensrights #StolenGenerations
