During the early 1990’s I was appointed as the spokesperson for the newly developed Aboriginal Visitors scheme.
This scheme was one of the recommendations from the Royal Commission into Aboriginal deaths in custody.
The story tells of an incident whilst I was visiting a young Aboriginal man in the East Perth Lockup, I was racially vilified and threatened by a Detective Sgt of the Western Australian Vice Squad whilst carrying out my duties. The story also recapture’s the police harassment on my family during the early years of the political activism of Dumbartung.
