    here's an article from the Black People's Union relating to the referendum, they backed the no vote

    it feels weird being on the same side as racists, but I did support my comrades in BPU by voting no. yes there's a lot of upset and intense emotions around this, but we can't kid ourselves into thinking this performative reformist bullshit would have made any material difference to Indigenous communities.

    Indigenous people weren't asking to be recognised by the racist constitution.

    dont lose sleep over nothing comrades, get active in your communities where-ever you can and fight for real change.
