• First Aboriginal Day of Mourning Protest On January 26, 1938, First Peoples activists organized a groundbreaking Day of Mourning to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the First Fleet's arrival in Sydney Cove. Approximately 1,000 First Peoples and supporters conducted a powerful, silent march through Sydney's streets, dressed in black to symbolize mourning for the devastating impacts of colonization.
