Come To Sam Watson's Campaign Launch This Saturday! (July 31st) @The Lizard, West End, Brisbane, Australia. The last Aboriginal Rights Coalition meeting recognised the call from the Defending Indigenous Rights convergence held in Alice Springs July 6 - 9 calling on campaign groups to support Aboriginal candidates who support the aims of the convergence. Responding to this call, the Brisbane Aboriginal Rights Coalition endorsed Brisbane Aboriginal leader and Qld Senate candidate Sam Watson's campaign. Sam will again be standing with Socialist Alliance. Sam has been a cornerstone of the Aboriginal struggle not just in Qld but nationally, and has been instrumental in keeping the pressure on the State Government in relation to the police murder of Mulrunji Doomadgee in 2004 and maintaining the campaign for justice for Mulrunji and family. He is an example of genuine leadership and puts the Noel Pearson's of this country to absolute shame. (In fact Sam led a protest outside Pearson's last visit to Brisbane!) In keeping with the last meeting's pledge to support Sam's campaign, this is an invite to Sam's campaign launch this Saturday! Support Sam!
