![]() I am writing to the ABC about the promotion of Bruce Pascoe, particularly his book Dark Emu and its related publications. This sacred experience has motivated me to serve my people to the best of my ability. It was a privilege to participate and it was a life transforming encounter. In 2011, I was honoured to accept an offer to participate in a sacred and ancient initiation ceremony held at Dhalinybuy homeland, East Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory. ![]() I am committed to serving the voiceless Aboriginal people on the ground in consultation with elders and traditional owners. I have appeared on The Drum representing Aboriginal people on many occasions and on Q&A once. I sit on the Board of the Reconciliation Working Group, Google Australia, the Sydney Harbour Federation Trust and I have been appointed to the Senior Advisory Group, established to ensure Indigenous voices are heard. I was an inaugural member of the Prime Minister Abbott’s, Indigenous Advisory Council and served as the Chair of its Safe Communities Committee until 2017. I am a lawyer, businesswoman, orator, media commentator and Managing Director of the Big River group. I am a Warrimay woman from the mid north coast of New South Wales. I requested the content of this letter to be discussed at your next Board meeting, please. ![]() To Chairwoman of ABC Board, Ms Ita Buttrose and Managing Director David Anderson ![]()
