I agree. Planning to reduce deaths in custody will require people with a deep understanding of the layers of #colonial β€˜White Supremacy’ that still dominate our #judicial system and #policing

Trump thinks he runs the world. Australians might have something to say about that Australians are avid consumers of US politics. But that doesn’t mean the vast majority are fans of the current president.

Donald Trump’s reach and influence are impossible to ignore. But perhaps the public’s fascination with US politics in part stems from just how out of place Trump’s style would be in Australia’s system.

Beyond concerning that victim/ survivors voices and those of the DFSV sector are absent in this decision! The unintended consequences of this legislation is something we know and can talk about if listened too! Not good enough #northernterritory #CLP
