Remember invasion of Australia

Everyone is welcome to observe Invasion Day at the Old Swan Brewery, also called the Waugil Site, says long-time Aboriginal activist Clarrie Isaacs.

Mr Isaacs, who in 1980 was given the Aboriginal name Yaluritja, meaning "Bird of Thunder", invited people with boats to visit the Waugil Site and fly the Aboriginal flag on Sunday, January 26, which other Australians observe as Australia Day.

He said he wanted the gathering to be really nice and peaceful.

It would start at 8.30am and finish at noon.

"First people will gather at the Waugil Site and later on go walkabout to the 'other event' at the Esplanade," he said.
