On 20 January 1842 Tunnerminnerwait and Maulboyheenner - two Indigenous freedom fighters - were executed on the corner of Bowen and Franklin Streets in Melbourne. A quarter of Victoria's white population came in carnival mood to see the killings.

LEST WE FORGET.

Join us on Wednesday 20 January from 12 noon to 1pm to commemorate the execution of Tunnerminnerwait and Maulboyheenner and to call for the creation of a significant monument on the site they were executed. The commemoration will be broadcast live on 855AM, 20 January 12 noon to 1pm.
