<a href="http://www.kooriweb.org/foley/whoisgf/who_is_he.html">Gary Foley</a> was sitting in his home in the Sydney suburb of Redfern one Summer afternoon when 'some Pommie bloke rings up and says he's Joe Strummer from the Clash'. <br /><br />In 1982, iconic punk originators The Clash toured Australia. In addition to having indigenous trailblazers <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVI2CxvqtII">No Fixed Address</a> open for them at one gig, there was <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ci_w2HpYaVk">one epic moment</a> in which <a href="https://www.themonthly.com.au/issue/2013/december/1385816400/shane-maloney-and-chris-grosz/gary-foley-joe-strummer#mtr">Uncle Gary Foley</a> commanded the stage. <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0284140/">Actor</a>, <a href="https://www.nma.gov.au/defining-moments/resources/aboriginal-tent-embassy">activist</a>, and <a href="https://arts.unimelb.edu.au/engage/alumni-and-friends/notable-arts-alumni/professor-gary-foley2">respected elder</a>, Gary Foley is a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuIYPm8tbvs&feature=youtu.be">towering figure</a> in Australia.post:www.metafilter.com,2020:site.187962Thu, 16 Jul 2020 06:41:58 -0800prismatic7indigenousaustraliaactivismlandrightstheclashthereisaworldbeyondamericaBy: zamboni

Very cool story, especially given the time period. I spent a summer working in Redfern a decade ago, it's one of those places where you can practically smell the racial disharmony in the air. "Hostile gentrification" is the phrase that comes to mind.comment:www.metafilter.com,2020:site.187962-7956533Thu, 16 Jul 2020 11:11:51 -0800misterdanielBy: prismatic7

¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
