She founded the Aboriginal Tent Embassy in Redfern that brokered a phenomenal deal with the Government to provide affordable housing for Aboriginal people. She continues to lead the fight against gentrification threatening The Block. She often attends large protests and community events on Gadigal Country, Sydney, speaking about the sovereignty of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
