Ever worked with someone who sees you as facilitating their success? You know what I mean, they like what you do because it makes them look better or helps their cause. This is a conversation that we need to have about the convergence of #BlackCladding and #MyBlackFriend.
Term comes up "Blackcladding", pitting mob against itself to devalue their work and wrap coloniser projects in the illusion of black endorsement. Sickening.
#BetterTogether
Another form of #BlackCladding is a large non-Aboriginal business partners with an Aboriginal (A) business to access a contract under an IPP with the promise to use the A business to deliver a component of the contract. But, once they get the contract, the A Business is dropped.
