Why

Invasion Day Rally Melbourne on Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung Lands.

January 26 is not a day to celebrate.

It is a day of invasion — and a day of survival, resistance, and mourning. It is a day we come together to tell the truth and demand justice.

On Invasion Day, we rally to stand with First Nations peoples across this continent and demand:

  • Freedom for our peoples, lands and waters
  • Treaty and truth for our old people and for future generations
  • Justice for babies and kids so they can grow up safe, loved, and free

An end to deaths in custody, forced removals, and ongoing violence from systems built on invasion.

Join us on our annual day of protest for First Nations peoples across this continent.

What to bring:

  • Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander flags
  • A deadly banner (we see them and love them btw)
  • Invite 5 friends and family to come with you

In solidarity,
Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance

Organising guide

Invasion Day is about coming together. Aunties, kids, workers, students and neighbours all walking side by side for truth and justice.

We made this Organising Guide so you do not have to do it alone.
Whether you can put up one poster, host a banner night or bring five friends, it all matters.
