Hi loves
PLEASE RT
This is a brilliant, non-threatening, non judgmental video aimed at “good-spirited, fair-minded people” who are confused by the conflicting messages re The Voice
It’s by my dear friend Shelley Reys, a Djiriibul woman and one of the architects of Reconciliation
It’s clear, fair, reasonable and, yes, detailed
Let’s try and clear up the misconceptions and confusion
❤️🥰🙏

Yunupingu walked in two worlds with authority, power and grace, and he worked to make them whole — together. He was a leader, a statesman, a great Yolngu man and a great Australian. He now walks in another place, but he has left such great footsteps for us to follow in this one.

We have many people to thank over the coming days, but firstly a deep thank you to the First Nations witnesses for their generosity and commitment in sharing such compelling evidence about how climate change is already impacting them, their cultures and communities.

The clients, witnesses and supporters you see in these photos travelled from far and wide to be in Meanjin today to hear this decision together.
