Passionate speech by indigenous journalist Stan Grant on being Australian. This is compelling viewing, and every Australian should watch it. On Australia Day, it is even more significant and important, as for many Indigenous Australians, they see little reason to be celebrating…
Good one Kate!
❤
I found his speech inspiring and so much to think about – sadly already some of my friends have been cynical about it. Won’t change my thoughts. Just like you have inspired me Kate, together we can make a difference! Happy Aussie day xo
Mine too, and it won’t change my thoughts either. Sadly, there are racists everywhere, and Australia is, whether we want to admit it or not, full of them as well. Some days I hang my head in shame…
Thank you Kate for reminding me how much work still needs to be done in our wonderful counrty to make it better.
It seems we have a long way to go in so many ways, and in so many areas, even though we do live in a very ‘lucky’ country… x
