The Uluru Statement from the Heart is an invitation to the Australian people from First Nations Australians. It asks Australians to walk together to build a better future by establishing a First Nations Voice to Parliament enshrined in the Constitution, and the establishment of a Makarrata Commission for the purpose of treaty making and truth-telling.
5years today.
Finally, it's going to happen :)

from Emma Husar (ALP)
"Happy going back to your home little Queens. I hope you grow up to be leaders one day & ensure that Australia never loses its conscience again 💗💗"
also Emma, from the day before the election: Tomorrow cast your vote as though it’s for the most vulnerable person you know ♥️
We don’t vote for the best party - there’s no such thing, we just vote to keep the worst ones out.
