You mean the people that were treated like garbage in their own country by the British are finally lashing out? Not exactly a secret.

It's not the current Parliament building, btw. That one looks like this, and is not on fire.

Yeah, like that's productive. What is this, some sort of BLM protest?

If a person is not in the state of grace, burning down a building is also not going to do one iota of good to the cause. So if in the process of setting fire to the building and people inside die? Then you are now not only an arsonist, but a murderer. And if you happen to die that day? The fire you end up in will be eternal, unless you are given some signal grace while you are dying and can repent in time.

EACH PERSON MUST REPENT, AND BE IN THE STATE OF GRACE. Even if you die in supposed "self-defense" and are not in the state of grace, well...

If you want to burn buildings down, you had better be 100% sure there is no human life in it, or else you have done nothing but lose your soul if you intentionally lit that fire or condoned it.

God versus the devil. If you are on God's side, then you know how to fight the devil. So do it! Quit joining the wrong team by this kind of stuff. Besides, I am not convinced this whole nonsense isn't part of the brainwashing.

Oh, all the natives in Australia and Canada and NZ and this country and that have been so mistreated for 400 or whatever years now. Pick a number. Oh, oh, oh, perpetual victims. There will never be enough money, apologizing, scapegoating with the Church, newspaper articles, special holidays, national days of mourning, flags at half-mast, cookie sales, green t-shirts, red t-shirts, pink t-shirts, special made-in-native-monkey-land Amazonian tribal shirts to go around....!

****Don't drink the kool-aid, people.****

Whoever made/presented this video is a no-nothing pretender. Here is a little history:

Aboriginal Tent Embassy
1972: Aboriginal Tent Embassy established in front of Parliament House, Canberra

Establishment of Aboriginal Tent Embassy on Australia Day, 26 January 1972
On 26 January 1972 four Indigenous men set up a beach umbrella on the lawns opposite Parliament House in Canberra. Describing the umbrella as the Aboriginal Embassy, the men were protesting the McMahon government’s approach to Indigenous land rights.
The embassy operated in a number of locations and took many forms before its permanent establishment on those same lawns in 1992.
The goals of protesters have also changed over time, and now include not only land rights but also Indigenous sovereignty and self-determination.
John Newfong, Identity, 1972:

Quote

With its flags fluttering proudly in the breeze, the Aboriginal Embassy on the lawns opposite federal parliament has been one of the most successful press and parliamentary lobbies in Australian political history.

Land rights struggle
Since European settlement, Indigenous Australians have been fighting to retain the rights to their traditional lands. The 1960s and 70s was a period of greater national awareness of Indigenous activism and saw significant actions taken by groups in the land rights struggle.
In 1966, 200 Gurindji stockmen, domestic workers and their families walked off Wave Hill Station, beginning a strike that would last seven years. Lobbying the Northern Territory and Australian governments for equal pay and conditions, as well as land ownership, the Gurindji people bought these issues firmly into the public eye.
The 1967 referendum, in which Aboriginal Australians were finally recognised as citizens, also provided more momentum to the land rights struggle by raising the profile of Indigenous issues with the wider Australian public.
The 1971 Milirrpum v Nabalco Northern Territory Supreme Court case also highlighted the issue of land rights. In 1963, after traditional lands of the Yolngu people in Arnhem Land were sold without consultation to Nabalco, a bauxite mining company, traditional owners made several attempts to have the land returned, including the now famous Bark Petition.
When Justice Blackburn ruled against the Yolngu on the grounds that Native Title was not part of Australian law, Indigenous communities Australia-wide were outraged.
On the eve of Australia Day 1972, the McMahon government announced the implementation of a new system that rejected granting independent ownership of traditional land to Indigenous people in favour of 50-year general purpose leases for Indigenous communities, provided they could demonstrate a social and economic use for the land and excluding any mineral and forest rights.
After the ongoing disappointments of the land rights struggle, this announcement sparked action among many Indigenous groups and directly contributed to the founding of the Tent Embassy.

Beginning
After the McMahon government’s announcement, many protest groups sprang into action, including a group from Redfern in Sydney. Four members of this group – Michael Anderson, Billy Craigie, Bertie Williams and Tony Coorey – drove to Canberra and set up a beach umbrella on the lawns opposite (what is now Old) Parliament House.
Labelled the ‘Aboriginal Embassy’, the sit-in protest was symbolic of the fact that the government’s statement had made Indigenous Australians, in the words of activist Gary Foley, ‘aliens in our own land, so like other aliens, we needed an embassy’.[1]
On 6 February the embassy issued a list of demands to the Australian Government. The list focused on land rights issues and demanded:

Complete rights to the Northern Territory as a state within Australia and the installation of a primarily Aboriginal State Parliament. These rights would include all mining rights to the land
Ownership and mining rights of all other Aboriginal reserve lands in Australia
The preservation of all sacred sites in Australia
Ownership of areas in major cities, including the mining rights
Compensation for lands that were not able to be returned starting with $6 billion and including a percentage of the gross national income every year.

A visit from Opposition Leader Gough Whitlam to discuss the five-point plan was seen by activists as a great success in gaining recognition for their cause and having their ideas heard by those in positions of power.

Growing support
Rapidly gathering support, the embassy grew by April to include at least eight tents. It attracted both Indigenous people and non-Indigenous people from across the country who joined in solidarity over the land rights movement.
Support shown by official representatives from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander groups, as well as diplomats from a number of countries including Canada and Russia, helped bolster the profile of the embassy.
Support for the Embassy was also strong among the Canberra student population, with a number of Australian National University students assisting with billeting, joining the protest crowd and opening an embassy bank account.
Gaining media attention across Australia and internationally, the embassy site became a centre for protest, with a number of well-known Aboriginal activists spending time there. These included Gary Foley, Roberta Sykes, John Newfong, Chicka Dixon and Gordon Briscoe to name a few.
Groups from the embassy went on protest marches, lobbied government representatives and spoke at community forums to continue to raise the issue of land rights in broader public settings.
While the embassy enjoyed wide support, it also faced a large contingent of politicians and members of the general public who believed that the protest was nothing more than trespassing, and a blot on the Canberra landscape.

Two ranks of police line the street with a large crowd gathered on the other side.

Offers were made to the embassy for buildings and a ‘club’ both on the original site and in other Canberra locations. However, these were refused as they were seen as a way of placating and removing protesters while making no real changes to the land rights situation.
In May 1972 Ralph Hunt, the Minister for the Interior, announced that new laws would come into effect making it illegal to camp on unleased land in the ACT and giving the government powers to forcibly remove anyone found to be in breach of the ordinance.
On 20 July hundreds of protesters clashed with police in a violent brawl after officers tried to move people along and remove the embassy tents. Many protesters were arrested and the tents were torn down.
The next Sunday, after the embassy tents had been re-erected, more than 200 protesters again clashed with police and the tents were removed for a second time. Images of police violence against protesters spread across the country, leading to even greater support for the embassy and its aims.
On 31 July 1972 more than 2000 people were present when the tents were re-erected and then removed by protesters in a peaceful demonstration. After Justice Blackburn found the legality of the ordinance giving police power to remove protesters was invalid, protesters again peacefully erected and removed the tents in a symbolic gesture.
The removal ordinance was then legally introduced in September, preventing any further establishment of embassy tents at Parliament House.

After 1972
Between 1972 and 1992 the embassy was established at a succession of places across Canberra, including the site of the current Australian Parliament House.
Focusing not only on land rights, protesters now encouraged action on a number of issues including funding for Aboriginal communities, the political representation of Indigenous Australians, self-determination and Aboriginal sovereignty of Australia.
Future of the Tent Embassy
In 1992 on the 20th anniversary of the original protests, the embassy was permanently re-established on its original site on the lawns outside Old Parliament House. Protesters once more sought to raise the profile of Indigenous issues, fearing that those in power were again forgetting Indigenous Australians.
In 1995 the embassy itself was listed on the Register of the National Estate; the only site on therRegister noted as important due to its political significance to Indigenous Australians.
Since this permanent re-establishment, protests have been held at the embassy for a range of reasons, including against Aboriginal deaths in custody, the Howard government’s Northern Territory Intervention in 2007, and cuts to essential Indigenous services .
The embassy is still controversial. Many people have challenged its validity and a number of arson attacks have damaged buildings within the camp.
The Tent Embassy is a symbol of Aboriginal protest against successive governments and their approach to Indigenous issues. Today, the most prominent issue being publicised by the embassy is Aboriginal sovereignty over the Australian continent and an acknowledgement of an Indigenous right to self-determination.
