We are so excited about the Information Session that TOGETHER, YES will run in Nowra next week! We've received a great response from the community. Already 100+ people registered, but there is still room, join us and let's make history together.

#TheVoice #yes23 #ulurustatement #constitutionalrecognition #voicetoparliament #Referendum23

Listening to Uncle Noel Pearson on #ABCRN this morning was absolutely inspirational. Erudite, compassionate, and a visionary. His metaphor of the #LiberalParty position on #ConstitutionalRecognition of indigenous Australians as a judas betrayal during passover is both brilliant and powerfully damning. I believe he's right and the referendum will pass, with those in the LNP and ONP proven woefully out of touch.
DEAN PARKIN, YES Alliance, launched campaign last week. See yes23.com.au for info, docs, etc. YES Alliance are from FROM THE HEART; working with ULURU DIALOG (https://ulurustatement.org/) and UPHOLD AND RECOGNISE (http://www.upholdandrecognise.com/)
Lack of detail? #referendum23 about principle #constitutionalrecognition & #voicetoparliament. If YES by double majority (>50% country + >50% each state) then Parliament establish and vote details. NO campaign asks detail now to roadblock process
Other countries followed similar processes (e.g. wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanfan_Treaty and wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Waitangi). We are not alone but we are behind the ball when comparing what other countries with large Indigenous populations have already done #UNDRIP
ACTIONS: 1) Be a CONVERSATION HOST @ togetheryes.com.au & run sessions. They provide experts, resources, assistance, etc. 2) Live in Shoalhaven? Expert Forum @ Nowra post NSW Elections. Need team 2 support YES campaign. Msg @raularregui 2 join.

Uluru Statement from the Heart

TOGETHER, YES (togetheryes.com.au) update Voice – Chair: MARY CROOKS, Victorian Women Trust (www.vwt.org.au) - Presenters: KARA KEYS, YES Alliance (yes23.com.au); & JON FAINE, Journalist/Author (www.jonfaine.com)
Process to create #ulurustatement very thorough: 250 groups at meetings, each represented areas across the country, each area had minimum 60% traditional owners in its ranks. The statement had input from very large % of First Nation Australians
#ulurustatement offer from 1st Nation Australians to non-Indigenous Australians to address issues that divided us more than 200yrs. Non-Indigenous ways tried already, progress made but issues still there. It’s time 2 let 1st Nation Australians lead
#ulurustatement calls for VOICE+TREATY+TRUTH as path to solution. #constitutionalrecognition & #voicetoparliament NOT political strategy by ALP/LNP/Greens... It's what 1st Nation Australians offered non-Indigenous Australians as per the statement

#yes23 #Referendum23 - 01/02

Completed the short online course delivered by From the Heart about what the Voice to Parliament will look like and how it can be achieved. Highly recommend spending 15 minutes working through this.

Indigenous Constitutional Recognition through a Voice

Opposition leader accuses prime minister of 'treating people like mugs' over Voice referendum
What a pathetic excuse for a leader #Spud is. We know #Nats are a lost cause but why does #Dutton act like the minor party in the coalition?
It can only be that he has no interest in ending #racism, #bigotry or #discrimination - doesn’t actually have the capacity or vision to act like a leader.
#Reconciliation, #ConstitutionalRecognition, #TheVoiceToParliament #YouthIncarceration, #DeathsInCustody and #ClosingTheGap should be above partisan politics - should have been above politics after 1967 but here we are 56 years later appeasing racists and dividing the Australian community for pathetic political point scoring.
Australians have shown an ability to see through lies, deceit and bullshit in recent state and federal elections. Have faith that it will continue in the referendum.
