His brother, Daniel Yock, died in the back of a police van shortly after being arrested, in 1993.[3]
Fogarty met activist Cheryl Buchanan (born 1955[4] Melbourne , who was working with the National Union of Australian University Students (NUAUS).[5] Black News Service [6] [7] Black Resource Centre (BRC) in Melbourne (supported by the NUAUS[5] Brisbane .[8] Aboriginal Tent Embassy in 1972,[9] [4] Aurukun festival and to meet Mapoon people whose land near Weipa had been taken from them in the 1930s and 1940s.[5]
