Indigenous poverty

To commemorate Australia/Invasion Day (which was yesterday), I'd like to draw attention to the Make Indigenous Poverty History campaign. Many indigenous Australians live in poverty; their children are twice as likely to die in infancy; they suffer higher unemployment and are six times more likely to be murdered than the average Australian. The National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Ecumenical Commision (NATSIEC) has begun the Make Indigenous Poverty History campaign to draw attention to this apalling state of affairs and bring about meaningful change. Check out their website, and if you're an Australian, get involved.
