SUMMARY:Reconcile what? Why white Australia needs to rectify its wrongs
DESCRIPTION:Reconcile what? Why white Australia needs to rectify its wrongs\nJoin lawyer Teela Reid and The Daily Aus’ Editor Billi FitzSimons for a conversation about truth and reckoning. \nWhy are we a nation that has not yet recognised the First People\, andÂ whatÂ can we do to take action? \nAhead of National Reconciliation Week and on the eve of the fifth anniversary of Uluru Statement from the Heart\, join us for a conversation about truth and reckoning withÂ Teela ReidÂ and University of Sydney alumnaÂ Billi FitzSimons\, Editor of The Daily Aus. \nAfterwards\, we invite you to join us for light refreshments\, to continue the conversation and make new connections. \nAbout the speaker\nTeela Reid is a proud Wiradjuri and Wailwan woman\, lawyer\, essayist\, storyteller and co-founder of @blackfulla_bookclub\, a platform that honours First Nation’s Ancestors as the original Storytellers. Currently\, Teela is a Sydney-based Senior Solicitor practicing in Aboriginal Land Rights litigation and is the current Practitioner in residence at Sydney Law School. She is also a campaigner for the Uluru Statement from the Heart. \nThis year\, Teela is the contributing editor for the Griffith Review ‘Acts of Reckoning‘ Edition 2022. Her essay is titled ‘The Power of the First Nations Matriarchy: Warrior Women Reckoning with the Colony’. Her first essay isÂ 2020 – the year of reckoning\, not reconciliation. It’s time to show up!\,Â a soaring tribute to her late grandfather\, Trevor â€˜Toot’ Reid. Her second essay isÂ The Heart of seeding First Nations Sovereignty – Can you handle the truth about Treaty? \nTeela has also written opinions published in the Sydney Morning Herald\, Washington Post\, The Guardian\, Marie Claire and The National Indigenous Times. \nIn 2021\, Teela was named as aÂ Future ShaperÂ by Time Out Sydney for her public advocacy across a range of mediums. She was also awarded theÂ 2020 UNSW Young AchieverÂ for her contributions to the community\, her advocacy as a working group leader on section 51 (xxvi)\, the Race Power\, in the Constitutional dialogue process that culminated in the Uluru Statement from the Heart that culminated in the most historic calls for a First Nations Voice enshrined in the Australian Constitution and a Makarrata Commission to enable a process of Treaty and Truth-telling. Teela was also recognised for her work as a key thinker and leading advocate behind theÂ Walama Court\, a proposal to establish an Aboriginal sentencing court at the NSW District Court jurisdiction. \nAbout the host\nBilli FitzSimons is the Editor at The Daily Aus\, a social-first news service that engages more than 350\,000 young Australians.
