About Us
The Black Peoples Union is a revolutionary organisation that aims to empower Indigenous people in so-called Australia to pursue full self-determination and Sovereignty. We believe that as Sovereign Indigenous people we have the right to manage our own political, social, and economic affairs as we see fit, without interference from outside forces.
Our Demands
The Black Peoples Union stands for recognising and enforcing our full Sovereign rights to ownership and management of our lands and waters, and the right to full self-determination over all of our political, social and economic affairs so that we may forge our own future.

recent statements
empire is the enemy everywhere
The Black Peoples Union (BPU) issues this statement in unequivocal opposition to the latest round of threats, escalations, and imperialist violence from the United States, Israel, and their complicit allies against the sovereign state of Iran and the broader West Asian region. We speak not as abstract commentators but as Indigenous peoples living under occupation on our own soil, watching the same imperialist machinery that devoured our lands now encircle and attempt to destroy the Global South.
In Solidarity with Palestine
The Black Peoples Union unequivocally stands in solidarity with the Palestinian resistance fighters who, with unwavering courage, have undertaken the struggle to liberate their people and reclaim their land from the illegal occupation and colonial project of Israel.
We draw striking parallels between the Palestinian resistance to Israeli colonization backed by western imperialism, and the historical struggle of First Nations peoples in Australia against colonization and western imperialism. The experiences of dispossession, displacement, genocide, and the relentless fight for self-determination resonate deeply across these seemingly disparate struggles.
