I’m A Proud Kamilaroi Man

My name is Braydon Mundy and I am a proud Kamilaroi man.  My Mob are from the beautiful North West of NSW.  The Kamilaroi tribe are the second largest group in the Eora nation.  I am now living on Gumbaynggirr land in Coffs Harbour

For NAIDOC week I was asked to draw a design for the lapel ribbons.  I wanted the ribbon to symbolise a part of the land in which SHORE is located which is the Cammeraygal people, who are water and sea peoples.  I used the circles and the lines connecting them to symbolise this water.  I also wanted the ribbons to portray NAIDOC week and this is done through replacing the O in SHORE with the NAIDOC symbol which is displayed in the final design.

Harmony week is in Week 8 of this term from the 15th-19th of March.  This week celebrates Australia’s cultural diversity.  It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.  I hope everybody can get behind this.
