It's 20 years this week since the Reconciliation Walk across Sydney's Harbour BridgeAs part of Corroboree 2000, more than a quarter of a million people walked across the Sydney Harbour Bridge on 28 May 2000 to show their support for meaningful reconciliation between Australia’s Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.

We've gone backwards!
