RAINBOW COMMONUNITY SEEDCAMP

The Rainbow CommonUnity Seed Camp for the 4th Rainbow Corroboree / 10th Living Together Gathering has Begun! All Welcome to come in the Spirit of Unity, Caring and Sharing.

From Sister Kira :
Uncle Lewis Walker welcomes rainbow family once again to participate in co-creating the 4th Rainbow Corroborree. Last September rainbows co-created an amazing festival and reconcilliation event.
Rainbow family are welcome at the Rocky River anytime from now on to put energy into the vege gardens, the orchard, and the festival. And learn culture from medicine and songman, Lewis Walker.
Last september equinox over 700 attended. Rainbow had a beautiful camp on the banks of the river. Uncle Lewis hopes Rainbow will support him again in bringing Love and Light to his people, who have been oppressed for so long.
Strong seeds of reconcilliation were planted by our family in September. May Rainbows water those seeds, and may they grow…

About Lewis Walker

in the words of Lewis’ friend Soulore Solaris

“Its a great honour to have Lewis here with us, his strong and proud traditional wisdom and his
vision for a future together of all tribes and people is a beacon of light for a positive future in times of great uncertainty
and confusion.
“There is no uncertainty in Lewis’s call for our togetherness and the need to come together to
share healing and music so we can sing the dream of the future together. The mighty gift that we have in this time of
great change as the institutions of our society crumble and the earth spins a new pattern of life, is that the traditional
knowledge of this land is still alive.”

So Much Gratitude

As it is a major tenet of the Living Together Network that a positive civilization can only be built upon positive, respectful footing with the Original Peoples of a land - we at Living Together give thanks to the Jabulam Community for this opportunity to come in a good way
