Please join us for the Adelaide Mosque Open Day for the celebration of the historical relationship between Afghan Cameleers and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples in the advancement of Australia.

AMISSA acknowledges and respects that Australia Day does not have the same meaning for all Australians, especially Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, where the day marks a day of loss on so many levels, and see it as Invasion Day, Survival Day and Day of Mourning.
As migrants we want to reflect, respect and celebrate the connection between the First Nation communities and the Afghani cameleers (who built the Adelaide Mosque in 1886-88). We are grateful that the First Nations people for giving these cameleers hope, family and community.
Please watch as we are all part of the story –https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iOMy9Tg9Bg….
