Australian History from an Aboriginal perspective (Robbie Thorpe PART 4 of 5)
Part 4: Robbie Thorpe, of the Gunai people in S/E Victoria, giving a talk to Law students at Deakin University (Geelong, Australia) on 15 May 2009. **IN 5 Parts**
Subjects include:
1. The Legal questions of GENOCIDE and JURISDICTION. Do Australian courts have the jurisdiction to charge Aborigines in Australia? Under what jurisdiction? What is the real LAW of the LAND?
2. Climate change and Environmental Sustainability. Indigenous culture managed to sustain their way of life for 60,000+ years; European colonizers have almost destroyed the Australian ecosystem after barely 200 years of settlement. Is the ecocide fundamentally connected to the genocide and to European colonization and its industrial revolution?
3. Thoughts on the Native Title process, of which Robbie has recently started collaborating in preparing the Gunai/Kurnai claim for his mob. STAY TUNED to TheJuiceMedia for updates on this claim!
4. An overview of Aboriginal Activism and HISTORY key people tied to the topics of Sovereignty, Treaty, Terra Nullius the Aboriginal Embassy.

Forget corporate climate politics in Copenhagen: the World People's Conference on Climate Change and the rights of Mother Earth is currently being held in Cochambamba, Bolivia, hosted by president Evo Morales. Key on the agenda is to press for a global referendum on climate-change and the creation of a Declaration on the Rights of Mother Earth.
Speaking at the panel, 'Crisis of Civilisation and Alternative Paradigms: taking stock comparing Africa and Latin America from the Social Organisation', Marisol Mercado Sanchez of Peru, talks about class wars and the division between people from the left and indigenous peoples worldwide.

TRUMP
tjm-sxKcEsT9qLM
Hello world. RAP NEWS is back for a special episode on the 2016 USA Election mayhem, feat. Hillary Clinton vs Donald Trump + a touch of Jill Stein & Gary Johnson. This one's dedicated to all the Rap News fans out there!
I'm delighted to bring this amazing series back to life for this historic event! I look forward to seeing how this episode is received. I know it won't be the same without Robert Foster, but hope you'll find the same spirit and juice alive and well. If you like this new episode, and leave lots of loving comments for the awesome new team who joined me to make this possible (nudge-nudge!), we might just come together again and bring you more Rap News videos in the future.
I hope you enjoy.

HAZEL
tjm-AunlJIEDvPw
civil disobedience: 22 people arrested and 500+ protesting at Hazelwood in direct action against the dirtiest and most harmful coal-powered station in the world.
HAZELWOOD POWER STATION - is one of the dirtiest power stations in the industrialised world, emitting 17megatonnes of CO2 annually. International Power Hazelwood employs 520 people.
Hazelwood was scheduled to be decommissioned by 2009 due to its excessive carbon dioxide emissions, however the State Government in 2005 extended its life until 2031.
The action is intended to show that the social licence to continue to burn coal and pollute has been revoked. We are declaring a Community Decommission Order on Hazelwood, to switch on the renewable energy transition.
Speakers included: Robbie Thorpe - representative of the Gunai/Kurnai - owners of the land in the La Trobe valley, Scott Ludlum, Green Senator for WA, and Dave Sweeney, Australian Conservation Foundation, ACF.
THE POLICE RESPONSE: HOW OUR TAX DOLLARS ARE SPENT. The policing operation was reported to have cost in excess of $200,000 with 250 officers present including horses, dogs, the helicopter and boats on the pondage. The visible presence was about 100 officers along the fence line. Police had constructed a temporary fence about 100 metres beyond the real perimeter of the plant. This allowed demonstrators to breach the first police line and be arrested without actually getting too close to the plant, something the police obviously intended. Police did appear to lose patience by about 3 PM as the protestors held a final spokes council to decide on how to end the day. The meeting was buzzed low by the police helicopter and police liason were told that any mass charge on the fence to finish the day would be met with the use of capsicum foam. That was their subtle way of saying, it was time to go home.
Arrestees were charged with Trespass and were told they will be charged on summons to appear in the Morewell Courts at a later date. They were processed on site. One protestor was charged with assaulting police after allegedly colliding with a police officer after jumping the fence. Organisers have pledged legal support and solidarity fundraising will occur for all those arrested.

Today we travel into the pure world of sci-fi to investigate the much vaunted, mysterious potential future event known as 'The Singularity'. What will a machine consciousness mean for humanity? What are the ethical, political, military and philosophical implications of strong A.I.? And what would an AI sound like when spitting rhymes over a dope beat? All this and more shall be revealed in Rap News 28: The Singularity - featuring a special appearance from famed technocrat, futurist and inventor, Ray Kurzweil, in full TED talk mode; everyone's favourite warmonger, General Baxter; and we welcome back the dauntless info warrior Alex Jones, who last made an appearance in RN6. Join Robert Foster on this epic Sci-Fi quest into the future/past of humanity.
Written & created by Giordano Nanni & Hugo Farrant in a suburban backyard home studio in Melbourne, Australia, on Wurundjeri Land.
