Jacinta Nampijinpa Price: A Rising Star in Australian Politics
A Passionate Advocate for Indigenous Australians
Jacinta Yangapi Nampijinpa Price Warlpiri, born on May 12, 1981, is a prominent Australian politician who is making waves in the Northern Territory and beyond. She was elected to the Senate in 2022, becoming the first Indigenous woman to represent the Northern Territory.
A Strong Voice for Indigenous Issues
As the Shadow Minister for Indigenous Australians, Price has emerged as a fierce advocate for the rights and well-being of her people. She is passionate about improving educational outcomes, reducing youth crime, and addressing the disproportionate rates of incarceration among Indigenous Australians.
Challenging the Narrative on Racism
In the wake of the recent referendum on constitutional recognition of Indigenous Australians, Price has been vocal in challenging the perception of Australia as a racist country. She argues that the referendum, which ultimately failed, did not adequately address the real issues facing Indigenous communities.
