Gillian and Miette
I say yes on behalf of me and my remarkable daughters, because it is past time for all of us to acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s unique culture, history, and connection to this most beautiful and ancient country we are so very privileged to call home.
Voice, Treaties and the long overdue telling of some brutal truths are vital steps towards authentic justice and equality in our country.
I want to be part of our collective healing from recent history by honouring Indigenous voices. Brené Brown has taught us shame corrodes the very part of us that believes we are capable of change - let’s be vulnerable enough to move together towards a national identity that enables us to truly share pride in the incredible heritage of this vast and resilient place and the enduring tenacity and love of the people who have walked and worked it for millennia.
