Thank you, friends, for sending your love & care in this sad time.
Thank you to the many thousands of volunteers for taking action. You were part of an unprecedented movement that will continue on toward justice for First Nations people.
The below statement went out last night.
“You can’t separate politics from the plight of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people … they are structural in nature,”
“What has been proposed is absolutely the logical and moral thing for Australia to embrace.”

If you’re still not sure or intend to vote no please consider this. Suicide rates already so high in indigenous communities could worsen. Young people will become even more disillusioned with the future & our timidity on moral issues & fairness. The future darkens further with No
Over 200 doctors working in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Medical Services have come together to say YES to the Voice.
They join the leading body for Indigenous healthcare, the National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (NACCHO), in their support.

Elders implore voters to listen: “We want you to walk alongside us, not before us or behind us. We can all go forward together in harmony and respect”

In all my years I’ve never seen a political scare campaign cut through the truth like it’s cut through these four basic facts about the #VoiceToParliament referendum. It doesn’t even just undermine liberal democracy—it undermines our shared sense of reality
"We as parents want to give a better version of life than what we've all had".
On Saturday, stand with the 80% of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people supporting the Voice and vote YES.
#yes23
25 Australians of the Year have come together in support of the Voice to Parliament in an open letter to Australians.
"A Yes vote is a step to a more united and cohesive nation, conscious of the past and looking together to the future."

It‘s horrifying how many lies the No campaign is telling. If you’re thinking of voting No, just read the proposed Constitutional change: nothing about a treaty, or taking your property. if you don’t know, read up a bit. Whatever you do, don’t fall for the lies.
Vote YES
