One of Australia’s closest neighbours could be an independent nation by the end of this year. New Caledonia is due to hold its third and final referendum on 12 December 2021. But this vote has not come out of nowhere and, in fact, stems from more than 150 years of French colonisation.
The creation of this video took place across unceded Kanaky and Aboriginal land. Always was, always will be. Pay the rent.
