#Australia Day should not be a day of celebration. It should be a day on introspection for #Australia, when we consider the impact of the brutal inhabitation of a land already inhabited by peoples whose origins and proven care for this land was ruthlessly ignored. We should also be considering how we can and must do better.

Alice Springs Mayor Asta Hill will not attend Australia Day ceremony
Asta Hill will not take part in celebrations of Australia Day, which she sees as a day causing harm to First Nations peoples — a decision described as "disgraceful" by the local member of the Northern Territory Legislative Assembly.
