If you are interested in getting the Reconciliation WA emails and finding out about what's going on throughout the year then please have a look at them here https://www.recwa.org.au/
I'm sure they'd be very pleased to have the support (it's free and they don't send a huge amount of emails) at this particularly difficult time.

I had an email from Reconciliation WA ths morning. I'll quote it here.

"Australia's reconciliation journey continues

Yesterday’s referendum result is a profound disappointment to us all.

Despite this setback the work of reconciliation will continue. It is needed now more than ever.

Reconciliation WA Co-Chair Carol Innes said that Australia must now come together to turn what has often been a disappointing narrative into a shared commitment for reconciliation.

“Western Australians must ask now ourselves whether this is the standard we are prepared to accept in our society. We can do better.” Carol said.

“Whilst we are saddened by this result, this is not the first time our people have experienced setbacks to their aspirations.”

“We pay respect to the courage and example of our Elders and leaders who have walked this journey for many years.”

Reconciliation WA is buoyed by the enormous contributions of our supporters who worked the length and breadth of Western Australia during this campaign and who, as part of a movement, have worked to change the country for the better in the past 30 years.

We are encouraged by the public support of a broad range of people including Australia’s young people and those from culturally and linguistically diverse communities.

Yesterday, as a nation we stumbled on our reconciliation journey. We must acknowledge and sit with this.

However, we are confident that after the dust settles, the hundreds of thousands of Western Australians who voted Yes, and those who voted No - but who are committed to better outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people - will unite for a more just Australia.

As part of a network spanning the country, we recognise and celebrate everyone in Western Australia who showed up for recognition, for respect, and for voice, and applaud the generosity and effort of everyone involved.

Now is a time for healing.

We are determined to continue the journey of reconciliation in Western Australia and urge you to continue as well. "

Attention-seeking Senator Lidia Thorpe now claims she'll support a legislated voice (not a constitutional change), days after PM Albo confirmed there won't be a legislated voice if the majority #VoteNo in #Referenum2023. Not genocide?
