Inkahoots acknowledges the First Peoples of Australia, their Elders past, present and emerging. We also acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded and that we live, work and love on stolen land. We stand in solidarity with traditional owners in the struggle for justice and restitution.
October 2014 / It's Time, Again
Gough Whitlam 1916-2014. A true social justice reformer who changed Australian culture and embraced equal opportunity for all. Vale Gough...
“In a rapid program of reform it called ‘the program’, the Whitlam government created Australia’s national health insurance scheme, Medibank; abolished university fees; introduced state aid to independent schools and needs-based school funding; returned traditional lands in the Northern Territory to the Gurindji people; drafted (although did not enact) the first commonwealth lands right act; established diplomatic relations with China, withdrew the remaining Australian troops from Vietnam; introduced no-fault divorce laws; passed the Racial Discrimination Act; blocked moves to allow oil drilling on the Great Barrier Reef; introduced environmental protection legislation; and removed God Save the Queen as the national anthem.”
..........
He was my hero, the reason I could go to Uni and art college, he tripled funding for the arts in his first 3 days in office and set up the Australia Council who funded Inkahoots to establish our original screenprinting studio.
I know he was 98 but I can't stop crying.
