SUMMARY:NAIDOC Week
DESCRIPTION:NAIDOC | \nWe have a proud history of getting up\, standing up\, and showing up. \nFrom the frontier wars and our earliest resistance fighters to our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities fighting for change today—we continue to show up. \nNow is our time. We cannot afford to lose momentum for change. \nWe all must continue to Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! for systemic change and keep rallying around our mob\, our Elders\, our communities. \nWhether it’s seeking proper environmental\, cultural and heritage protections\, Constitutional change\, a comprehensive process of truth-telling\, working towards treaties\, or calling out racism—we must do it together. \nIt must be a genuine commitment by all of us to Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! and support and secure institutional\, structural\, collaborative\, and cooperative reforms. \nIt’s also time to celebrate the many who have driven and led change in our communities over generations—they have been the heroes and champions of change\, of equal rights and even basic human rights. \nGetting Up\, Standing Up\, and Showing Up can take many forms. \nWe need to move beyond just acknowledgement\, good intentions\, empty words and promises\, and hollow commitments. Enough is enough. \nThe relationship between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non‑Indigenous Australians needs to be based on justice\, equity\, and the proper recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ rights. \nGet Up! Stand Up! Show Up! with us to amplify our voices and narrow the gap between aspiration and reality\, good intent and outcome. \nGet Up! Stand Up! Show Up!

SUMMARY:Winter Solstice
DESCRIPTION:Summer and Winter Solstice | Geoscience Australia (ga.gov.au) \nThe winter solstice is the day of the year that has the least daylight hours of any in the year. \nOn the winter solstice\, the sunrise is not the latest and the sunset is not the earliest. However\, this day does have the least amount of daylight hours. \nBecause the path of the Earth around the Sun is an ellipse\, not a circle\, and because the Earth is off-centre on its axis\, these combined phenomena can create up to several minutes difference between solar and mean time. Around the winter solstice\, the time of sunrise continues to get later in the days after the solstice.

SUMMARY:Reconciliation Week
DESCRIPTION:Home – National Reconciliation Week 2022 \nThe National Reconciliation Week 2022 theme\, “Be Brave. Make Change.” is a challenge to all Australians— individuals\, families\, communities\, organisations and government—to Be Brave and tackle the unfinished business of reconciliation so we can Make Change for the benefit of all Australians. \nLast year Reconciliation Australia encouraged all Australians to take action; not just in National  Reconciliation Week but every week of the year. \nWe saw unprecedented response to our suggested actions for everyday and for braver action. \nThis year we are asking everyone to make change beginning with brave actions in their daily lives – where they live\, work\, play and socialise. \nNational Reconciliation Week—27 May to 3 June—is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories\, cultures\, and achievements\, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.

SUMMARY:Sorry Day
DESCRIPTION:NATIONAL SORRY DAY – May 26\, 2022 – National Today \nHOW TO OBSERVE NATIONAL SORRY DAY\n\n\n\nLearn the stories of the Stolen Generations\nJust a little research will tell horrific stories of children torn from their rightful families and forced into an unfamiliar and difficult life living with strangers\, as well as trying to keep up with the schooling\, traditions\, and family dynamics of colonist-descended white Australians. Read a few of them\, and share in the victims’ pain. \n\n\n\n\nCelebrate Aboriginal achievements\nPeople of Aboriginal descent have made incredible contributions to Australia as a whole\, in the fields of art\, music\, law\, medicine\, entertainment\, and more. Take a few hours to locate some of these contributions\, learn about them\, and bask in the richness of their culture. \n\n\n\n\nThink about what “reconciliation” really means\nTo apologize without reservation. That can be a tough thing to do\, whether as an individual or as a larger group. An apology can go a long way towards healing\, or at least beginning to. Thinking about the concept of reconciliation in your life and applying it can be a humbling and important experience.
