Ten years on: Are we there yet?
Ten years ago, hundreds of thousands of Australians walked across bridges in support of reconciliation.
We have much to be proud of in looking back over the past ten years, but injustice and disadvantage continue to affect Indigenous Australians. We have yet to fulfill the promise of the bridge walks to achieve equality and reconciliation.
So this year Australians for Native Title and Reconciliation (ANTaR) calls for a year of recommitment to reconciliation.
Show your ongoing commitment to reconciliation by doing a virtual bridge walk.
