January 26 has long been a Day of Mourning, not celebration. Declared in 1938 by Aboriginal leaders including William Cooper, because it marks the beginning of colonisation and invasion for First Nations peoples. That’s why January 26 is not a date to celebrate. Exploring ideas like an Australian Long Weekend creates respectful distance and space for a more inclusive way forward. We’re glad the conversation is shifting. 🤎 #NotADateToCelebrate #DayOfMourning #AustralianLongWeekend #Jan26 | Cloth

Almost a century ago, an unassuming hall in the heart of Sydney was the site of one of Australia's first Aboriginal civil rights protests. It was held on January 26, 1938. But while many are familiar with Martin Luther King Jr and Rosa Parks, the stories of Australia's civil rights pioneers are less well known. Reporter Ella Archibald-Binge and Producer Raveen Hunjan have this report. Warning: This story contains the names and images of Aboriginal people who have died. | 7.30
