Challenging the Great Divide in a David and Goliath struggle | Sovereign Union - First Nations Asserting Sovereignty: Ghillar, Michael Anderson 1 June 2018

Ghillar said from Mataganka, N.T., on his way Home from the Kimberley, WA, that there is a gigantic David and Goliath struggle going on in Aboriginal Affairs today and the struggle has the potential to become an enormous disconnect between First Nations people supposedly aspiring for the same outcome, unless we address divisive policies.

What is currently and actively going on without our Peoples' full
realisation is the struggle between, on the one hand, grassroots Peoples
and their own leadership, who are beginning to assert their
pre-existing and continuing sovereign status as linguistically based
Nations, whose Countries are occupied by the Australian/British
colonialist administrators and, on the other hand, the assimilated
two-bob-mob conditioned by the colonised mindset and who are attempting
to derail the sovereignty movement.


Only yesterday at Warmun, Turkey Creek, Kimberley Land Council
presenters were challenged by people asserting their sovereign position,
only to be told sovereignty was a 'load of rubbish' but this was
strongly refuted by Elders and the younger generations. This situation
at Warmun is developing fast and I'll address it in the next media
release.
