Autumn Session 5: Living together, Black and White


Self determination, reconciliation, treaty, Intervention, even "sorry" are words thrown around in recent discussions of indigenous issues. But what about the people? What is it like to be an indigenous person living in Perth? What are the issues of strattling two cultures in the same city? How can we live together in Perth city as black and white?
Autumn session 5 Living Together, Black and White
David Michie is chairing a panel of local indigenous people so they can share their story about what it is like to be indigenous Australian in Perth. David has a long history as a family councillor amongst indigenous communities, he continues to help indigenous families relate in healthy ways and make the most of life.
St. Matthew's supports AEF at Balga as one of our mission Partners. Harley Hayward is the pastor of Aboriginal Evangelical Fellowship (AEF) I strongly encourage you to come to this session to be informed about what are some of the issues for indigenous people living in our city.
As we take the opportunity to love our indigenous neigbours in Perth, here is a chance for us to be informed through the stories of indigenous people from our city.

Autumn Session 5: 21st May 7:45pm At St. Matthew's Church
