Ahead of the AFL Indigenous Round this weekend, television presenter Brooke Boney has called for people to wear the Aboriginal Flag on their clothing in protest of a companys disgusting copyright of the design.

The symbol will not be displayed at the AFL Indigenous round as WAM Clothing continues to say its illegal to use the sacred design as the company owns the exclusive rights to it.

After the flags designer, Luritja artist Harold Thomas was recognised as the rightful owner in a 1997 Federal Court ruling, he then sold the exclusive rights to WAM Clothing in 2018 to reproduce the flag on clothing.
