You can help by supporting the current national postcard campaign
on the Queensland stolen wages issue.
The national
postcard campaign was launched at a rally in Brisbane on Friday
8 August.
Union and community
groups including the Australian Council of Trade Unions, Queensland
Council of Unions, Victoria Trades Hall Council (VTHC) and Australians
for Native Title and Reconciliation (ANTaR) have generated and endorsed
the campaign with an undertaking to help with distribution of up
to 50,000 of the postcards.
The set of three
cards tells the story of the missing, unpaid and underpaid wages
belonging to Aboriginal people who were forced to work over the
past century.
One card supports
the unionšs backing of the campaign, one is for Qld Premier Peter
Beattie and the third, to be kept, has details of a fighting fund
to be set up for a longer term campaign.
You can obtain
postcards by emailing a request to antar@antar.org.au
or by phoning the ANTaR National Office on 02 95556138.
