In 2016, she challenged the Western Australian Government for failure in procedural fairness during its change to the Aboriginal Heritage status of the land to be impacted by the extension to Roe Highway known as Roe 8. Personal lifeAbraham is a custodian of the Whadjuk Noongar people descended from the Beeliar Whudjuk Noongar tribe.[2] She traces her family back many generations, and is directly related to Calyute, one of the few survivors of the Pinjarra massacre.[2] Her grandfather is Reverend Sealin Garlett.[3] In 1997 Abraham, along with a number of other indigenous artists of the Djidij Djidji Arts Group, created a piece of artwork using linocut print, which is part of the City of Melville's art collection.[4] In 2010 Abraham was co-chair of the City of Cockburn Aboriginal Advisory committee.[5] Abraham was the Socialist Alliance candidate for the electoral district of Willagee in the 2017 Western Australian state election.[6] Opposition to Roe 8In May 2014 the Barnett Government announced that the Perth Freight Link would go ahead; there had already been considerable concern over the plan's first section, an extension to Roe Highway known as Roe 8, that would run through the Beeliar Wetlands.[7] Abraham has publicly opposed the Roe 8 extension.[8][9][10] On 2 December 2015 Senator Scott Ludlam read a letter to the Australian Senate, written by Abraham to the Prime Minister of Australia about the Perth Freight link, in particular the area to be impacted by Roe 8.[11] The letter is a plea to the newly appointed Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull for intervention, in which she describes the cultural and historical significance of the wetlands to the Noongar people. She also expresses her concern about the removal of sites from the Department of Aboriginal Affairs registry and the West Australian Government's "manipulating, disrespect and lack of cultural respect to the ... Beelier Whadjuk Noongars".[12] WA Supreme Court writsOn 30 March 2016 Greg McIntyre QC (the lawyer who also commenced the Mabo case), acting pro bono for Abraham,[2] lodged writs in the Supreme Court of Western Australia. The writs alleged that Minister of Aboriginal Affairs Peter Collier and the Department of Aboriginal Affairs cultural committee denied procedural fairness to Abraham when it failed to consult her. The failure occurred because Abraham was a party to original consultation that recognised the significance of the area.[2][13] On 24 August 2016 the Supreme Court dismissed Abraham's challenge.[14][1] References1. ^1 {{cite|url=http://decisions.justice.wa.gov.au/Supreme/supdcsn.nsf/PDFJudgments-WebVw/2016WASC0269/$FILE/2016WASC0269.pdf|title=Abraham -v- The Hon Peter Charles Collier MLC, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs [2016] WASC 269|page=1|date=24 August 2016|publisher=Supreme Court of Western Australia|accessdate=27 August 2016}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Abraham, Corina}}2. ^1 2 {{cite news|last1=Grant|first1=Steve|title=ROE 8 The fight of my life|url=https://heraldonlinejournal.com/2016/04/01/roe-8-the-fight-of-my-life/|accessdate=2 April 2016|work=Fremantle Herald|date=1 April 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=The community campaign to fight Roe 8|url=http://scott-ludlam.greensmps.org.au/content/video/community-campaign-fight-roe-8|website=Scott Ludlam Greens MP|accessdate=2 April 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=City of Melville Art Collection|url=http://www.melvillecity.com.au/plogger/index.php?level=picture&id=11|publisher=City of Melville|accessdate=2 April 2016}} 5. ^{{cite news|last1=Boase|first1=Ken|title=Pressure on to stop freeway|url=http://aiatsis.gov.au/sites/default/files/docs/digitised_collections/the_koori_mail/475.pdf?width=900&height=800&iframe=true|accessdate=21 April 2016|work=Koori Mail|issue=edition 475|publisher=Koori Mail|date=5 May 2010|page=15}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=WA Election 2017: Willagee|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/elections/wa-election-2017/guide/will/|website=ABC News|publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation|accessdate=25 February 2017|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170225111345/http://www.abc.net.au/news/elections/wa-election-2017/guide/will/|archivedate=25 February 2017 |deadurl=no}} {{webarchive|format=addlarchives|url=https://www.webcitation.org/6oXRus4xB|date=25 February 2017}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Perth Freight Link a boost for WA industry |work=Media Statements|url=https://www.mediastatements.wa.gov.au/Pages/Barnett/2014/05/Perth-Freight-Link-a-boost-for-WA-industry.aspx|publisher=Government of Western Australia|accessdate=3 April 2016|date=19 May 2014}} 8. ^{{cite news|last1=Grant|first1=Steve|title=ROE 8 The fight of my life|url=https://heraldonlinejournal.com/2016/04/01/roe-8-the-fight-of-my-life/|accessdate=2 April 2016|work=Fremantle Herald|date=1 April 2016}} 9. ^{{Cite AV media|title=No Roe 8 Rally 2011 Elders|publisher=YouTube|publication-date=18 August 2011|time=4:12|time-caption=Abraham begins speaking at|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sRk18MxVjQ}} 10. ^{{cite news|last1=Boase|first1=Ken|title=Pressure on to stop freeway|url=http://aiatsis.gov.au/sites/default/files/docs/digitised_collections/the_koori_mail/475.pdf?width=900&height=800&iframe=true|accessdate=21 April 2016|work=Koori Mail|issue=edition 475|publisher=Koori Mail|date=5 May 2010|page=15}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=The community campaign to fight Roe 8|url=http://scott-ludlam.greensmps.org.au/content/video/community-campaign-fight-roe-8|website=Scott Ludlam Greens MP|accessdate=2 April 2016}} 12. ^1 Letter from Corina Abraham to the Prime Minister of Australia, 30 November 2015 13. ^{{cite web|title=Traditional owners continue to challenge the Aboriginal heritage approval for a major highway extension in WA|url=http://caama.com.au/news/2016/traditional-owners-continue-to-challenge-the-aboriginal-heritage-approval-for-a-major-highway-extension-in-wa|publisher=Central Australian Aboriginal Media Association|accessdate=2 April 2016}} 14. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-08-24/roe-8-perth-freight-link-aboriginal-heritage-appeal-thrown-out/7780698|title=Perth Freight Link: Roe 8 Aboriginal heritage appeal thrown out|publisher=Australian Broadcasting Corporation|author=Irena Ceranic|date=24 August 2016|accessdate=27 August 2016}} 6 : Living people|People from Perth, Western Australia|Australian indigenous rights activists|Noongar people|Year of birth missing (living people)|Place of birth missing (living people) |
