Indigenous social justice association
I followed ISJA (Indigenous Social Justice Association) for a few months to learn more about their fight against Aboriginal deaths in custody and over-incarceration in Australia. This coincided with the global Black Lives Matter protests after the killing of George Floyd, leading to the largest ever protests against Indigenous deaths in custody in Australia, and a subsequent parliamentary enquiry. These are some snapshots of the time I spent with them.
The largest Indigenous rights protests in Sydney following the global 2020 BLM movement, partially organised by ISJA, and how they were impacted by Covid-19.
