The death of an Aboriginal teenager in Western Australia ignites nationwide rallies and vigils, with activists saying the country continues to fail its Indigenous people and is seeping with racism.
In Sydney, thousands gather to pay tribute to the boy's life and call for an end to the systematic violence towards Indigenous Australians.
"I'm here because the targeted racist, fatal violence against First Nations people on their own country has been going on for 250 years.
And that's 250 years too long," says protester Dr Ingrid Matthews.
