Indigenous Australian & Black Lives Matter Resource Link Up
Note to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers: The links below contain names and images of Indigenous people who have passed.
It’s hard to know the right thing to do at the moment, I recognise my privilege as a white cis female and don’t want to take away any time from the BIPOC community. I do want to share my platform to help. I figured that I’ve shared so much in regards to other matters that sharing a list of resources for BLM and more specifically, those that are close to home, the Australian based information.
I’m not the first to do this and it’s by far not a fully comprehensive list. Feel free to leave links with more info. I’ve also been sharing what I can on my Instagram. I’ll continue updating this, I just wanted to get it up with info before the protests.
If I’m made any errors, please feel free to correct me.
