Monique (Melbourne), Monika (Sydney), Catherine (Melbourne).

with Anne

1. A: What is sovereignty? What does it mean to you?

    Catherine:Wealth, recognition, and respect.

    Monique:Right to land, right to wealth and space- just in general.

    Monika:Recognition and acceptance.

2. A: What would sovereignty physically look like?

    Catherine:unconditional love and acceptance from leadership.

    Monika:It might have signs of recognition in local areas.

    Catherine:Education of the public- people just knowing. Shopping bags that say "If you can read this,

    you're standing on Indigenous land".

    Monique:When people ask "where are you from?", saying "I'm from Wiradjuri land" instead of

    Canberra, Bunnerong land instead of Melbourne.
