ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

Indigenous Honi was edited and published on the unsurrendered lands of the Gadigal people.

Sovereignty was never ceded.

As First Nations students of a colonial institution, we recognise our role in tearing down Western notions of learning and empowering First Nations epistemologies.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have existed on this continent since time immemorial. We are the first scientists. The first storytellers. The first engineers and the first diplomats.

In publishing Indigenous Honi after a long hiatus, we hope to revitalise and reinvigorate the radical spirit of First Nations students and staff.

As we stare down university management and a government which continues to be complicit in the annihilation of our cultural inheritance, we are galvanised by our determination to achieve justice.

Always was, and always will be...

... Aboriginal land.
