Indigenous and human rights groups have condemned the rushed passing of the Stronger Futures legislation through the Senate in the early hours of this morning.

I oppose the legislation namely " Stronger Futures".  I am ashamed that our government have taken a step  back in time and think this is the answer to the problems by highlighting what a mess they have already left behind with useless legislation in the past.

Vincent Forrester says the situation in the community of Mutitjulu, south-west of Alice Springs, has deteriorated since the Intervention and will only get worse under the Stronger Futures laws.
"I am calling on all Aboriginal Territorians for civil disobedience," he said.

I love you Aunty!

 Mutujulu has many strong woman who oppose this legislation and this is restricting the entire community from itself.  I agree with Vince Forrester and we need to rise up against this and try to fight this policy on the ground!
