SUMMARY:2023 Wingarra Djuraliyin: Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law
DESCRIPTION:2023 Wingarra Djuraliyin: Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law\nSydney Law School is proud to host the annual Wingarra Djuraliyin public lecture\, which showcases Indigenous perspectives on law. \nThe Council of Australian Law Deans in 2020 expressed its commitment to aÂ legal system free of systemic discrimination and structural bias against First Nations peoples – this commitment applies to legal education institutions.Â  \nThe recent public lecture by Dr EddieÂ CubilloÂ addressed this topic\, which is of considerableÂ public interest including within the legal academy.Â  \nWe acknowledge the courage of Dr EddieÂ CubilloÂ to address the impact on First Nations Peoples. \nSince the delivery of the lecture\, the University has been informed of ongoing legal issues\, which currently prevent the lecture recording being available for distribution. \nIn-person event \n\n\nSydney Law School is proud to host the annual Wingarra Djuraliyin public lecture\, which showcases Indigenous perspectives on law. \nIn 2023\, the lecture is “One more broken silence: an Indigenous academic encounters racism in the law school 2023”\, delivered by Dr Eddie Cubillo (University of Melbourne Law School). \nThis event is being held to mark the International Day of the World’s Indigenous People\, which is celebrated annually on 9 August. \n2023 Lecture \nOne more broken silence: an Indigenous academic encounters racism in the law schoolÂ  \nIn this lecture\, I question why despite being white-qualified\, having done an LLB\, LLM\, PhD\, I am only seen as â€˜the culture guy’ and only respected enough to do â€˜smoking and acknowledgements’\, why myself and other Blak academics continue to be subjected to casual and pervasive racisms as an everyday occurrence\, and why some of our most prestigious academic institutions continue to be complicit in perpetrating and condoning racism despite all the rhetoric about standing for equity and justice. \nIn 2015\, Wiradjuri man Stan Grant challenged Australians to consider that â€˜The Australian Dream is rooted in racismâ€¦the very foundation of the dream’. Recently\, as Australia tracks towards a referendum on a First Nations Voice to Parliament that 80% of Indigenous people support\, non-Indigenous author Richard Flanagan challenges us to â€˜confront th[e] most terrible truthâ€¦[that] racism experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peopleâ€¦is of a completely different orderâ€¦far more extremeâ€¦[and] so pervasive as to often be invisible to non-Indigenous Australians’. \nThe toxicity of the academy and whether it’s safe for Indigenous staff and students needs to be confronted. It needs to be highlighted that they often are not. First Nations academics often ask each other if it’s all worthwhile. As a country\, we need to acknowledge that the places settlers/non-Indigenous Australians have built for themselves were established by\,Â  andÂ  are sustained by\, racial violence. InstitutionsÂ  can beÂ  unrelentingÂ  inÂ  theirÂ  viciousness towards sovereign Black bodies\,Â  and this viciousness includes the silence of colleagues\, their privilege and their â€˜unconscious biases’. As Richard Flanagan acknowledges â€˜Spend some real time with Aboriginal people and you’ll see how they are still made to live in another country\, and it is frequently a cruel\, pitiless and brutally destructive world.‘ \nSo why am I still here? Why do I\, and other Blak academics continue to subject ourselves to the viciousness and racial violence? For the same reason I call it out in this lecture – As a proud Larrakia\, Wadjigan and Central Arrernte man I put up with the racism because of what I hear constantly from our people on the front-line advocating and delivering services trying their best in a racist world. If I can educate future leaders to respect my people\, I will. My ancestors and elders have faced adversity\, so that I can achieve\, it’s my turn. \n  \nWednesday 9 August\, 6-7.30pm\nCPD points =1.5 \n\n\n\n\nAbout the speaker \nDr Eddie Cubillo is a Larrakia\, Wadjigan and Central Arrente man from the Northern Territory. \nHe is a long time advocate for Indigenous rights and is currently Associate Dean (Indigenous Programs) & Director of the Indigenous Law and Justice Hub at the University of Melbourne’s Law School\, were he has his sights on the decolonisation of legal education and supporting graduates to work towards First Nations Justice. \nEddie’s other past roles include Anti-Discrimination Commissioner of the Northern Territory\, Executive Officer of the National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Legal Service (NATSILS) and Director of Community Engagement in the Royal Commission into the Protection and Detention of Children in the Northern Territory. \nEddie has been a former Chair of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) Yilli Rreung Regional Council\, the North Australian Aboriginal Justice Agency (NAAJA) and the Aboriginal Justice Advisory Committee and is currently on the Law Council of Australia’s – Indigenous Legal Issues Committee\, National OPCAT Advisory Group\, Justice Policy Partnership (JPP) under the National Agreement on Closing the Gap\, and the Victorian Treaty Authority Panel. \n\n\n\n\nCatch up on the 2022 lecture \nIn 2022\, the Wingarra Djuraliyin lecture was presented by Professor Anne Poelina and Marlikka Perdrisat\, who spoke on the topic of â€˜First Law: A Climate Chance’. \nWatch here \nThis event is presented by the University of Sydney Law School in collaboration with the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Strategy and Services) at the University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law
DESCRIPTION:Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law\n\nThis inaugural Sydney Law School public lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law will be delivered byÂ Associate Professor Nicole Watson\, on the topic of ‘Indigenous Women\, Outlaw Culture and the Law’. \nThe University of Sydney Law School\, the oldest in Australia\, has long taught almost exclusively the laws brought by settlers to this continent. The Law School is committed to transforming legal education as part of the University’s â€˜One Sydney\, Many People’ Indigenous Strategy. \nEarlier this year the Law School declared its support for theÂ Uluru Statement of the Heart. We are also committed to further embedding Indigenous perspectives and legal traditions into our curriculum. \nThis new annual lecture is a key part of those commitments. It seeks to create a public platform for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander scholars to reflect on the nature of Indigenous laws and legal traditions for a wider audience in Australia and abroad. \n2021 Lecture\nâ€˜Indigenous Women\, Outlaw Culture and the Law’ \nSince the advent of colonisation\, Indigenous women have rarely enjoyed the protection of the law. In response to their exclusion from the law’s protection\, generations of Indigenous women have developed an outlaw culture\, which consists of tactics and practices that provide sanctuary from the violence of colonisation. \nIn common with the outlaw culture articulated by the American scholar\, Monica Evans\, Indigenous women’s outlaw culture is manifest in a spectrum of relationships with the law. At one end of the spectrum are the law-breakers who became bushrangers and absconders. At the other end are women who sought to create sanctuary by operating within the law. Such outlaw women drew upon their resourcefulness and grit to advocate for constitutional reform. Others pursued litigation in order to protect the rights of vulnerable people. \n\n\nThe speaker\nAssociate Professor Nicole Watson\, Director of Nura Gili Academic Programs\, University of New South Wales. \nNicole Watson is a Murri academic from south-east Queensland\, whose family hail from the Munanjali and Birri Gubba peoples. She is the Director of Nura Gili Academic Programs at UNSW\, and has an LLB\, an LLM and a DCA. Nicole has published a large body of work on legal issues that are pertinent to Indigenous peoples. Her 2021 book Indigenous Legal Judgments\, co-edited with Heather Douglas\, examines how the stories of Indigenous peoples can be incorporated into legal decision making. \nThe inaugural lecture is sponsored by the Julius Stone Institute of Jurisprudence. It will also feature several guest speakers: \n\nProfessor Lisa Jackson Pulver AM\, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Strategy and Services)\, University of Sydney\nProfessor Simon Bronitt\, Dean\, Sydney Law School\, University of Sydney\nNathan Allen\, First Nations Officer\, Sydney University Law Society\n\n  \nWatch the replay\nWatch on The University of Sydney’s YouTube: Public Lecture on Indigenous Peoples and Law: â€˜Indigenous Women\, Outlaw Culture and the Law’\,Â  delivered by Associate Professor Nicole Watson. \nCPD Points:Â 1.5 \nThis lecture is presented by the University of Sydney Law School in collaboration with the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Indigenous Strategy and Services) at the University of Sydney. \nBanner image credit: â€˜Yanhambabirra Burambabirra Yalbailinya‘ (Come\, Share and Learn) 2020 by Luke Penrith for the One Sydney Many People Strategy.
