Recognition is not sovereignty: Michael Gordon, ‘Indigenous summit rejects ‘minimalist’ recognition, pushes for treaty and voice in constitution’ Sydney Morning Herald, 26/05/17

27May17

Excerpt: In a stunning repudiation [of current proposals], the convention rejected acknowledging Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the constitution, instead backing the Indigenous voice. It also called for a road map to a treaty.

It has called for a “Makarrata Commission” to supervise agreements between Indigenous groups and government and a period of truth-telling about the treatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
