Celebrating 20 years of Camp Sovereignty and the Black GST

We were invited to photograph the 20 year anniversary event of Camp Sovereignty.

The event combined two components: traditional dances performed around the sacred fire, and a concert put on by a series of Indigenous musicians and artists. These acts were interspaced by various speakers representing various sections of the Aboriginal sovereignty movement.

Dancers included the Djirri Djirri; Gunditjmara, Yuin, and Bidjara woman and Camp Sovereignty firekeeper Yaraan Couzens Bundle, and others.

Performers and artists in the second part of the event included Uncle Bunna Lawrie, Jodie Beaton, Philly, Carol George, Uncle Dave Arden and Uncle Bart Willoughby.
