We are sorry that Kalkadoon.org has not been active for most of the past year. Baganan has been caught up in family business that has prevented her from pursuing the business outlined in Kalkadoon.org, in particular the work at Palm Island and Boulia about housing.
Details of Baganan’s present crisis can be found here “Brisbane Family Challenges Qld’s Adult Guardianship Laws”
As for myself (John Tracey, Kalkadoon.org editor) I am now running the blog ” “Paradigm Oz”
I will continue to report and comment on many of the issues covered in Kalkadoon.org on Paradigm Oz.
With a bit of luck Baganan and I will be back on track with a new program of action when the family business is sorted out. At that point Kalkadoon.org will be revived - stay tuned!
Also, look out for Baganan performing around the place with ” “The 2 Hard Basket”

Well Aunty April is officially taken over the October edition bare naked and ready to romp
I finally get some time cause I missed you all so much and cyberintercourse is were its not orally but a message stick with a kick in it
Everyone intercoursing in cyber so I don’t want to be left out you know you can never get too much of that and john that other editor has been too b usy intercousing that’s why he walks around with a big smile on his dial all the time
Getting down to business now my neice baganun Kuritityin and john have a band which is called the BOO factor and they are looking for some work they been rehearsing and rehearsing it drives you crazy so I told them I’d manager them and get them
A gig cause they put their little hearts into their rehearsal doon’t wich way
So if any wants to book them just give me a tingal as their manager ill take a small commission for managing them make sure they got water on stage, massages and syke the up thearpy a manger work is never done . Sometime I got run to the shop at last minute while they on stage with a cup of tea they don’t care about me I’m just their slave. As I’m older they don’t have to wory about the sex bit but everyone else can worry for it like to clean out the washing once in a while .
So don’t foreget the gig so that we can have a feed
So the gimmie gimmie tribe and fukawy tribes are at war and I’m n the middle who to back up because most of my mob the bogaling mob are from the fukawy tribe but they are still gimmie gimeie tribe through blood ties they both drive a hard bargin especially the gimmie mob everything they see they want and the fukawy mob don know who they are half the time
I put a link to Senater Andrew Bartletts indigenous info pages because the colour purple always turns me on not because I’m asking you to vote for him
a recent photo of the senators purple shirt. (while at a stolen wages meeting in Rockhampton recently with the Fitzroy Basin Elders. The senator is the one in the middle)
If you want to talk to John Tracey he has an article on murris in cyberspace with an open forum on it so you can a good orgasism with him

photo of my mum eva creed (on right) and freinds in front of the dormitory on palm island where the girls who wer stolen lived and work for no wages and were requiered to go to Fantome island and do the laundry at the leper colony for no wages - Baganan
To the
Committee Secretary
Senate Legal and Constitutional Committee
Department of the Senate
Inquiry into Stolen Wages
Submission from Theresa Creed and John Tracey
on behalf of kalkadoon.org
We support the present terms of reference of the Senate enquiry. It is important
that the facts of the matter be established. However we would urge the senators to
also seek solutions to the problem as well as simply analysing it. With this in mind
we refer specifically to reccomendation “I”
“whether there is a need to ’set the record straight’ through a national forum to
publicly air the complexity and the consequences of mandatory controls over
Indigenous labour and finances during most of the 20th century”
We suggest that any future action by the senate or federal government be directed to
finding realistic solutions to the problems identified by the enquiry, not simply public
acknowledgements of the problem. Read the rest of this entry »

Aunty April says I talk too much and am only allowed one article this newsletter. Who am I to argue? I am just the editor.
So this is it.
As from next year (2007) kalkadoon.org will be publishing from Palm Island. Up until now kalkadoon.org has been run by a small group of people and only two regular writers, Baganan and myself. Now aunty April has decided she is an editor too! Next year kalkadoon.org will remain the sole and exclusive property of Baganan, (don’t tell Aunty April that though) however we fill invite other Palm Islanders to contribute writing, art and photos regularly. We have not yet caught up with the possibilities of pod casting – music and video on the website, but we are looking in that direction. Read the rest of this entry »
