Pyes Creek Aboriginal Massacre

Murder Site of Women and Children

My friend Ricky Pascoe is on a search for truth about his great grandmother and his grand mother who were aboriginal Ngarabal women born at Pyes Creek and Five Mile respectively.   These sacred places are not far from where I live and in trying to help my friend I came across this article that gives some details regarding the mob from Pyes Creek which was smack in the middle of what became known as Bolivia Station.

There has to be something seriously amiss with proper process re: Heritage Register.

I keep seeing incidences of Aboriginal sacred places being removed from the heritage register.  This has to be corrupt. How can a site become UN SACRED is beyond me. 

Desperate need for protection of sacred sites at the Pilliga as well.

To then have to go through the process of re registering has to be time consuming and money consuming all the while done to try to protect the mongrel government from being prevented to doing whatever it seemingly likes with no respect for this land and the longest known history on Earth.

A win for the Buninj

Thorny Pea

Uncle Mickey Ryan and his sister Aunty Marie set up a protection camp on the North Lismore Plateau in an attempt to draw the attention to the issue with the Lismore Council and their secret plans.  The Lismore council had been found out in their swindling operation and it was going to court.  Finally its been settled and its a win for the old Echidna in North Lismore.

They deliberately did this misappropriation of facts so as to sell off land on the plateau as house sites.  The council spoke of affordable house sites..  I pointed out to the Elders while I was there not to feel bad because they were being played by the council and their emotions being hankered by the "Affordable House Sites" con.  I had gone for a walk and all I could see was high fabulous house sites for the so called rich and famous of the Lismore area.

I personally asked Uncle Mickey to keep this in mind when he was feeling like the job was too big at any time and to be spurred on by the knowledge that what he was doing was correct.  Recently we went to Nimbin for the Save the Buninj concert and that was to raise more funds for the costs of engaging a decent legal representative that acted on behalf of the sacred mountain.
