Creation Story
Trigger Warning: suicide
Suicide dogs our mob all over these lands. It takes our men and women; boys and girls; young and old. It doesn’t discriminate. In Victoria, it’s our young men who are hit hardest. Racism, trauma, disconnection from country, culture and kin all combine, with other socio-economic factors, to negatively impact on our social and emotional wellbeing.
We have decided to create a hoodie to remind those suffering in silence that, while your world may seem and feel dark and gloomy today, the sun will shine tomorrow. Dhadjowa Barparrik means “sunshine tomorrow” in Yorta Yorta language.
To utilise our platform, and to show support for our community and those tirelessly working in this space, we will be donating 35% of the profit from sales to Dardi Munwurro’s ‘Brother to Brother’ 24/7 Aboriginal men’s crisis line (1800 435 799). Another 35% will be donated to the Victorian Aboriginal Health Service’s (VAHS) 24/7 ‘Yarning Safe’N’Strong’ crisis line (1800 959 563) that supports all mob. The remaining 30% of the profits directed to other community programs.
Please remember that you are loved, valued, cherished. Hang in there, yarn up, and always keep in mind… Dhadjowa barparrik.
