Unity. Part of an anti-racism photographic exhibition called ‘We Bleed the Same’ by @lizdeepjones capturing Australians from all walks of life, faiths, cultures, traditions. Their hopes, fears, dreams and challenges. And a conversation on the path ahead for Australia. How does the political landscape and rhetoric affect different communities? Do all communities feel the same sense of belonging and support? How do we create an Australia where we can respectfully disagree and still support each other across all boundaries with reciprocal determination? What is the impact on unity of the failure to apply the same standards to all communities by politicians and Governments? What does leadership look like that demonstrates a path away from the rise in hate groups, Neo Nazis and racial division seen in Australia and around the world? We’ll discuss all these concepts and more at Jozo, Paddington, Sydney, June 13, 5.30 Tickets at https://lnkd.in/gyJiwXn6

Our Elders: Patrick Lulua Hear from Patrick Lulua, from the Tshilqot’in Nation, on the importance of moving away from colonial systems and reintroducing community-based justice practices rooted in the teachings. “We are trying to break away from that (colonial) system and reintroduce our [Tshilqot’in] laws, which were harsher than European laws, when you broke the law you had to pay for it…Now we hear in the province about the catch and release system, just a swat on the hand and you’re back on the street again. But traditionally that wasn’t allowed.” Patrick Lulua, from the Tshilqot’in Nation shares his powerful insights on the need to restructure the justice system through the lens of Homeland laws at the 3rd Annual BC First Nations Justice Forum. He emphasizes the importance of moving away from colonial systems and reintroducing community-based justice practices rooted in the teachings. Patrick’s reflections on Tshilqot’in laws offer a vision for a more just and equitable future, inspiring us in our Track 2 work at the BC First Nations Justice Council, which focuses on restoring First Nations’ justice systems, legal traditions, and structures. We honour his teachings and hold up the significance of place-based laws that also focus on restoring relations, as we all continue this vital work together. https://lnkd.in/gw4JBdax 3rd Annual Justice Forum What We Heard Report: https://lnkd.in/gnWzvwS8 #WhatWeHeard #3rdAnnualJusticeForum #BCFirstNationsJusticeForum #FirstNations #Indigenous #Law #BCFNJC #BC #BritishColumbia #ProvinceofBC #LawFoundation #IndigenousLeadersSpeak
