Kerry Arabena - Picture from here
I do love to hear intelligent women getting up on their hind horse and telling things as they are. Kerry Arabena did just that last night in delivering the 2010 Charles Perkins Memorial Oration. In fact, she gave it to a few blokes - even more fun. And I reckon that no one would have approved of that more than the outspoken Charlie Perkins himself.
Best wishes Kerry in your role leading the National Congress of Australia's First Peoples. May your work and the work of the congress strengthen the lives and well-being of the First Nations in this land.

This blog does not take Anonymous comments. Experience shows that comments cluttered with "Anonymous" are boring and people don't know whether "Anonymous" is one person or many. This is not a decision about freedom of speech. It is a decision about boring or unwillingness to be known by even a pseudonym.
