Today we remember Ms Dhu who was killed in a police watch house. Police called to assist her due to DFV instead she died a horrific death at the hands of police and so called health professional 💔 RIP #MsDhu #DefundThePolice

“It’s plain and simple, the use of force was a contributing factor to his death,” Dungay’s nephew, Paul Silva, told Guardian Australia. “If you take that use of force out, would David Dungay still be alive today? Yes, he would.” theguardian.com/australia-ne…

Family of David Dungay, who died in custody, express solidarity with family of George Floyd

Aboriginal man said ‘I can’t breathe’ 12 times before he died while being restrained by five guards in Sydney jail

We don't need to look to America to see what racism looks like, or what police brutality is. If we just opened our eyes here we would see it everywhere. Maybe that's why we look to America, because we don't want to look at ourselves.

National action today demanding justice for Kumanjayi Walker, who died by police shooting on Saturday. This is the 2nd Aboriginal death in Australia from police shooting in 2 months. Police violence is killing us and must end. #JusticeForWalker #IStandWithYuendumu

'How many times does one person have to be tested?'

More than 30 years after the royal commission into deaths in custody began, imprisonment is still inflicting fatal damage on Indigenous families.

This is incredible. WA to end imprisonment for unpaid fines thanks to the tireless work of fierce advocates like the family of the late Ms Dhu, the Aboriginal Legal Service, and @DebKilroy and Sisters Inside. The criminalisation of poverty must end.

Yesterday we mourned 411 Aboriginal deaths in custody since #RCIADIC. This is no time to mainstream legal services funding. The next Federal Government MUST prioritise self-determination of our community controlled ATSILS. Sign now! ✊🏿#JusticeByUs changetherecord.org.au/justi…
