The fight against Aboriginal Death in Custody continues

Saturday, 29 May 2021 - 9:00am to 9:30am

News and labour updates from the Asia Pacific region.

Aboriginal deaths in custody are still happening in Australia at an alarming rate despite numerous enquiries and hundreds of recommendations. We speak to Latoya Rule, the sister of Wayne Fella Morrison who died in custody in 2016 due to the actions of South Australian Corrections Officers. She and her family are fighting for justice and to make sure that no more Aboriginal people are killed while in custody.

As part of the campaign, the family has initiated a petition to ban spit hoods. You can sign the #BanSpitHoods. Stop Black Deaths in Custody.
