Support
One of the things that has made Camp Sovereignty such a success has been the amazing support we have got from all the people of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia and the rest of the world. This support has come to Camp Sovereignty in the form of presence, logistics, promotion, food, money, clothing and statements of solidarity.
The messages of support that we have got over the last few months have been magic. It has seemed like every time we got a bit down about what was going on, a flurry of emails would turn up and the smiles and hope would be back. If you want to send us your message of support, just send an email to campsovereignty@gmail.com and we'll put it up here.Thanks everyone!

I just want to say G'day to all the friends I've made at Camp Sovereignty, white and Koorie.
I just want to say I admire all of you koorie brothers and sisters who have done so much, and have attempted to do so much more for all Aboriginal people.
I have seen, heard, and read enough un-intelligent, un-educated biased white hatred to sicken me for ages to come.
I know we white supporters got in your way, on your nerves, tried to say too much, say and do too little, but most of us just want to be there for you all.I look upon all you mob I've met and shared with, as my friends, and I hope you mob may think likewize? luv yas. Bruce
Good luck to all,
I admire your loyalty, courage and persistence – keep up the fight – we'll back you up.
