My essay for @esquire, published today. A date marking the beginning of an invasion. An invasion that Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people have survived. We mourn for those we’ve lost.
With an eye to the past, the essay looks forward for justice.

@JimmyBarnes@jane13barnes Not just the Scots celebrating. Love the contribution of rabbie burns to our culture. Have celebrated our 30th burns night in Melbourne tonight with much laughter and poetry and whiskey
It’s Burns Night when Scots celebrate the poet Robert Burns. He wrote ‘Auld Lang Syne’ and this poem that is a favourite of mine. ‘ My Love is Like a Red Red Rose’. I’d sing it for you and pipe the haggis in but Dr says not yet.

I wrote this as an open letter to mob for once the referendum is over… but I know how you non-Indigenous peeps love a stickybeak, so it’s ok if you have a look too. There’s actually a few relevant bits in there for you to consider anyways. indigenousx.com.au/an-open-letter…
@DrKatyBarnett@MelbLawSchool@jeremy_gans It was a fabulous lecture @DrKatyBarnett I'm so pleased I went along. Good on you - highly entertaining and educative. I thought of you when I saw some swans (black) by the river on Sunday
.@highcourtofaus live streaming appears to be an entirely remote affair. The justices are shown with a background that looks like a courtroom background, but my eagle eye suggests that that's a virtual background.
'Libraries are islands of trustworthy information in a sea of disinformation.'
Thank you to @stemplemanmp for the rousing words in Parliament yesterday & helping us celebrate Library and Information Week.
