SUMMARY:1989: Tiananmen Square Massacre\, Bejing

SUMMARY:1992: High Court Decision in the Mabo Case
DESCRIPTION:Eddie Mabo – Marc Nemorin\n\n\n\n\n\nThis year marks the 29th anniversary of the Mabo Decision where six out of seven High Court judges agreed that the Meriam people held traditional ownership of the lands of Mer in the Torres Strait. Eddie Koiki Mabo successfully argued that his family’s ancestral land was not owned by the Crown. This landmark decision in the High Court of Australia overturned ‘terra nullius’\, an understanding that Australia was empty land belonging to no one before British occupation. The decision paved the way for native title in the Native Title Act of 1993. Eddie died before the decision was handed down in 1992 but his life leaves a powerful legacy: the traditional connection and occupation of land by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is now recognised in law across Australia.  \n\n\n\nGoing Deeper: \n\n\n\nhttps://digital-classroom.nma.gov.au/defining-moments/mabo-decision  \n\n\n\nPrayer:\n\n\n\nPrayer for Unity  \n\n\n\nCreator God\,  may the power of Your grace transform us.  \n\n\n\nChrist\, give us courage and hope to manifest the unity we have in you\, and to share our life with each other and the world.  \n\n\n\nHoly Spirit\,  empower us to work for justice for the people of the earth.  \n\n\n\nGod\, in your grace\, transform the world.  \n\n\n\nAmen.  \n\n\n\nThe National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Ecumenical Commission (NATSIEC)  of the National Council of Churches in Australia (NCCA)\, 2007.  \n\n\n\nArtwork:\n\n\n\nEddie Mabo by Marc Nemorin  \n\n\n\nMusic:\n\n\n\nKoiki by Mau Power\, featuring Radical Son  \n\n\n\n\n\nKoiki by Mau Power\, featuring Radical Son

SUMMARY:1891: Leo XIII's encyclical Rerum Novarum (On the Condition of the Working Classes)
DESCRIPTION:The Red Vineyard – Vincent Van Gogh\n\n\n\n\n\nRerum Novarum was a groundbreaking encyclical from Pope Leo Xlll in 1891 that laid the foundation for modern Catholic Social Teaching. It directly took up the issue of the dignity and rights of workers in a rapidly changing world where industrialisation had created an ever widening gap between the materially rich and the working poor. Rerum Novarum offered a just way forward for employers and workers\, naming human rights in every workplace as foundational for a just society. The encyclical emphatically stated that moral virtue was central to authentic Christian life. This includes just work policies and practices:  \n\n\n\n“…..it is more easy to understand that the true worth and nobility of man lie in his moral qualities\, that is\, in virtue; that virtue is\, moreover\, the common inheritance of men\, equally within the reach of high and low\, rich and poor; and that virtue\, and virtue alone\, wherever found\, will be followed by the rewards of everlasting happiness.”  Rerum Novarum #24\n\n\n\nTo view the Encyclical: \n\n\n\nhttp://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiii/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_l-xiii_enc_15051891_rerum-novarum.html   \n\n\n\nTo find out more about Catholic Social Teaching: \n\n\n\n\nCatholic Social Teaching an Introduction\n\n\n\n\nPrayer for Workers: \n\n\n\nDignity of Work and the Rights of Workers \n\n\n\nLord God\, Master of the Vineyard\,How wonderful that you have invited uswho labor by the sweat of our browto be workers in the vineyardand assist your workto shape the world around us. \n\n\n\nAs we seek to respond to this call\,make us attentive to those who seek workbut cannot find it. \n\n\n\nHelp us listen to the struggles of thosewho work hard to provide for their familiesbut still have trouble making ends meet. \n\n\n\nOpen our eyes to the struggles of those exploitedand help us speak for just wages and safe conditions\,the freedom to organize\, and time for renewal.For work was made for humankindand not humankind for work.Let it not be a vehicle for exploitationbut a radiant expression of our human dignity. \n\n\n\nGive all who labor listening heartsthat we may pause from our workto receive your gift of rest. \n\n\n\nFill us with your Holy Spiritthat you might work through us to let your justice reign. \n\n\n\nAmen. \n\n\n\nCopyright © 2019\, United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.

SUMMARY:1941: Death of William Cooper
DESCRIPTION:William Cooper was an inspirational Aboriginal leader in New South Wales and Victoria in the early part of the 20th century and a founding secretary of the Australian Aborigines’ League. The league was created to lobby state and federal governments on behalf of Aboriginal people.  The powerful symbolic gesture of a Day of Mourning on 26 January\, along with a petition to the British monarch calling for Aboriginal representation in federal parliament\, inspired generations of activists working for justice for Indigenous Australians.

SUMMARY:2019: Death of Deacon Boniface Perdjert
DESCRIPTION:Deacn Boniface\, a respected Elder and the first Aboriginal permanent deacon\, passed away in 2019. As the national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Catholic Council’s tribute page for Deacon Boniface says: \n\n\n\nHis words and actions spoke loudly to the members of the Wadeye Community – of which he was a deeply loved and respected Elder – but also to the Catholic Hierarchy with whom he shared his wisdom on many official occasions.  http://www.natsicc.org.au/a-tribute-to-deacon-boniface.html \n\n\n\nOn the first anniversary of Deacon Boniface’s death we share for your reflection these words that he wrote in the later 1970s: \n\n\n\nGod did not begin to take an interest in people with the incarnation of his Son\, nor with Abraham. My people existed here in Australia thousands of years before Abraham. In all that time God was with my people. He worked through their culture. He was saving us despite human weakness. He was preparing us for the day when he would see the features of Aboriginals in the image of his Son. So i must recognize\, I must use the things of God that are in my culture. I mus use them in his service. If I do not do this\, my faith and my service are shallow. They are pretending. They belong to someone else\, not me. God has asked us t love him with wjhole mind\, heart and soul. So i must give myself to God as an Aboriginal. This is what God wants or he would not have made me what I am.  http://www.natsicc.org.au/a-tribute-to-deacon-boniface.html
