A diverse group of neighbours, with wide-ranging skills and experience, gathered at Redfern Town Hall on the morning of Saturday June 16 to hear the consultants employed by the current developers of the Rachel Forster Hospital site talk about what they are planning to do. With virtually no reference to the existing buildings, the current proposal was compared to the plans approved under the Redfern-Waterloo Act of the previous NSW government. As there had been very little consultation with the community in the development of these plans, the comparison had little meaning. Diagrams outlining the existing buildings – which the community know well – would have enabled a much better understanding of what is intended. The consultants noted that the current plans generally complied with the Approval, with the “minor” exceptions of: An additional 9 apartments achieved through removing Mini Vinnies appeal for support Photos: Joe Dimech the crossover apartments (which enable good cross ventilation); The SSH supported by TAFE in a way that is Garden Shelter offers opportunities to acceptance on a daily basis. “Yesterday, removal of all 3 bedroom apartments totally immeasurable,” Cana’s Julie volunteers who help provide a space for I walked toward Wayside with a woman (which the consultants did not seem IF You’ve been feeling the cold Sneddon said. “The staff are dedicated genuine community. “As a society, we who is sleeping rough,” Mr Long shared to realise); A change to the north-east lately, spare a thought for those who teachers who not only deliver classes but need to be more proactive in building in a recent letter to supporters and corner of the building resulting in find themselves without a place that’s volunteer time and are often teaching community and supporting each other friends. “She is sleeping on concrete near the removal of the jacaranda tree; safe and warm this time of year, and under challenging circumstances.” The in a constructive way,” Ms Sneddon the Post Office.

No.1 2012, ISSN 2013-6897 under the auspices of Coolabah Observatori: Centre d’Estudis Australians, Australian Studies Centre, Universitat de Barcelona Dancing with the Prime Minister Jennifer Jones Copyright © Jennifer Jones 2012. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged Abstract: When Ruby Langford Ginibi and her daughter Pearl prepared for the Foundation for Aboriginal Affairs Debutante Ball in 1968, they contributed to development of a significant new expression of Aboriginal identity and community belonging. Debutante balls were traditionally staged as a rite of passage that introduced a select group of young ladies to British high society. They went into decline in the UK in the late 1950s, under pressure from anti-establishment and sexual revolutions. The tradition remained popular in Australia, as the debutante ball had developed important status as fundraising events for local organisations. This article examines the history of Aboriginal girls ‘coming out’ at a debutante ball. While the inclusion of Aboriginal girls in debutante balls was encouraged as a means to achieve assimilation, proud celebration at all-Aboriginal events provoked controversy. Ruby Langford Ginibi’s reflection upon her daughter’s dance with the Australian Prime Minister at the 1968 Foundation for Aboriginal Affairs Debutante Ball is instructive. It explains how an exclusive, sexist British ritual has been transformed into a vital, inclusive Aboriginal rite of passage and challenges non-Aboriginal readers to re-evaluate their assessment of the tradition.
