Aboriginal Embassy, Parliament House, Canberra. January 1974

I was looking through some old photos of Australia and came across these. Maybe you also have some photos of protests, demos or riots that you could post to this thread...

Interesting...it would have been around two years old in these photos.

The Aboriginal Tent Embassy is included in the Commonwealth Heritage List.

I've actually done a long term project about small scale Political Protest in London over the last five years.
Here's a sample shot and the whole can be seen here, please do have a look if you have the chance:

Nice shot Helen. I love the inversion of Kennedy's bombastic nonsense 🙂
