Campaign Launch for Lifts at Redfern Uni Business School Iconic Kings Cross in Abercrombie St café reopens Latest plan Story page 7 THE REVIEW – pages 11-14 NUMBER ONE HUNDRED AND ONE MARCH ’12 CIRCULATION 22,000 ALEXANDRIA BEACONSFIELD CHIPPENDALE DARLINGTON ERSKINEVILLE EVELEIGH GLEBE KINGS CROSS NEWTOWN REDFERN SURRY HILLS WATERLOO WOOLLOOMOOLOO ZETLAND Campaign launch for lifts at Redfern Joel Pringle REDFERN: Twenty years of government inaction over lack of access at Redfern station has mobilised the local community, resident groups, Aboriginal communities, businesses and political party branches to join forces in the Lift Redfern Station campaign. The campaign is calling upon the Minister of Transport to take immediate action to install lifts to Redfern station platforms. A lack of accessibility to transport services reduces the independence of people with less mobility as well as making it very difficult and unsafe for the elderly and parents with small children and prams, as well as passengers with luggage. “Access to public transport is a basic right. Given that Redfern station is one of the busiest transport hubs in NSW, more suburban and inter-urban trains stop here than any other station, with the exception of Central, and 50,000 people use this station every day. It is appalling that there are no lifts,” said Mehreen Faruqi, Limited access to Redfern station: Shireen Haas holding her son Archie Haas Pustahija (5 months) Photo: Esther Butcher spokesperson for Lift Redfern Station.

    The Journal of the European Association of Studies on Australia, Vol.3. 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.

  • REDFERN PARK Tree Management Plan
    REDFERN PARK Tree Management Plan Final - Adopted 23 October 2006 REDFERN PARK DRAFT TREE MANAGEMENT PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Redfern Park Tree Management Plan (TMP) was prepared as part of a suite of Tree Management Plans for the City of Sydney’s parks. The TMP forms part of the Redfern Park Plan of Management and informs the Masterplan. A major focus of the TMP is to implement a program of tree removal and replacements that will reinforce the strategies recommended in the 2006 Masterplan. The Tree Management Plan includes a survey of all of the existing trees within the Park (124 trees) and contains relevant heritage, environmental and arboricultural data relating to individual trees as well as distinct groups of trees such as the street tree planting around Redfern Oval. A Safe Useful Life Expectancy (SULE) analysis of the tree population was prepared. From this assessment the following removal and replacement strategies were recommended: • Staged removal and replacement of the boundary planting of Fig trees surrounding Redfern Park, over the next twenty years; • Twenty seven (27) trees to be removed within the Park over the next fi ve (5) years; • Eleven (11) of these trees to be removed from within the Park during the Redfern Oval upgrade; • Paperbarks in Elizabeth Street to be retained until a row of advanced Fig trees are planted within the boundary of Redfern Oval; • Removal of the street trees in Chalmers Street during the Redfern Oval upgrade; and • Removal of selected trees on Phillip Street during the Redfern Oval upgrade; The Tree Management Plan recommends a series of improved techniques to ensure best practice tree monitoring and arboricultural maintenance.

  • History on a Bus
    History on a Bus USING SOCIODRAMA TO ADDRESS RACISM AND RECONCILIATION HELEN KEARINS ABSTRACT In Sydney’s Redfern Park on the 10th of December 1992, the launch of the International Year of Indigenous People, the then Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating delivered a ground breaking speech that gave great hope to people working for reconciliation with Aboriginal Australians. One of those inspired to continue this work, Helen Kearins developed a workshop that assists participants to own racism and move beyond it towards genuine reconciliation with Aboriginal people. In this article, adapted from her 2011 AANZPA Accreditation thesis, she demonstrates the efficacy of sociodrama in this work. KEY WORDS Aboriginal Australians, racism, reconciliation, sociodrama, warm up, White Australians Setting the Scene On my way to or from work in Sydney, I often drive past Redfern Park. Many Australians associate the suburb of Redfern with a stereotype of Aboriginal poverty and dysfunction. Apart from the fact that the stereotype is grossly inaccurate, I have a very different association with Redfern Park. It was here on the 10th December 1992 that Prime Minister Paul Keating gave a speech, often referred to now as the Redfern Park Speech, to launch the 1993 International Year of the World’s Indigenous People. I was there. The speech was significant because it was the first time that an Australian prime minister had acknowledged that, “...the problem starts with us non-Aboriginal Australians”. He went on to say, “It begins I think with an act of recognition” and to name the elements in need of recognition. He emphasised the opportunity provided by this international year to address the injustices suffered by indigenous Australians and to continue working towards reconciliation.
