Invasion Day Rally 2025 Naarm

We are calling on members of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community and our supporters to stand with us on Invasion Day, an annual Day of Protest.

Sunday 26th January 2025 @ Parliament House

We will stand together and march together as our Elders have for the last 87 years this January 26 to protest the ongoing colonial violence on our people.

This Invasion Day we want this violent colony of so-called australia to know we do NOT accept;

Melbourne Our children being forcibly removed from their families and communities.

Melbourne Racist and discriminatory policing practices and courts which incarcerate our people at the highest levels in the world.

Melbourne Our people being killed at the hands of police, prisons, hospitals and healthcare providers.

Melbourne Our sacred sites, cultural heritage sites, and our trees being destroyed with our country used an ATM for mining companies and the gubbament.

MelbourneGammin politicians and political parties trying to sell constitutional recognition without consent after our community has already rejected it.

Melbourne The 'Captain Cook'd endeavor' sailing our waters celebrating 250 years of the violent arrival of the empire. #RockTheBoat

We will not celebrate Australia - we call for the abolishment of 'Australia Day' - we will not celebrate so-called australia, which is built on the stealing of our lands and the massacres of our people.

We have no justice in this country, and we still face systemic racism and ongoing violence at the hands of the australian state.

That is why we protest, and that is why we march.

Please join us this Invasion Day and condemn the ongoing violence, ongoing theft, and ongoing discrimination that we as Indigenous people across so-called australia face.

This is a child-friendly event. We encourage everyone to bring banners, noisemakers and their voices and stand with us this January 26th.

Always was, always will be Aboriginal land
