The image the nation should have seen today
We are outraged at the publication of a racist cartoon in the Australian newspaper. The cartoon demeans Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and will cause enormous hurt after what has been a traumatic time for many First Peoples following the frightening footage of mistreatment of young Aboriginal people shown on Four Corners last week. We encourage people to submit a complaint to the Australian Press Council here - http://www.presscouncil.org.au/making-a-complaint/ and for people to share the image that the nation should have seen today to celebrate National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children's Day.
