The annual Sunrise Ceremony kicked off January 26 with powerful conversations on the Gold Coast.
"But I think it's important as mob, though, to think less about appealing to this nation to change this story. Because it knows the story. It contests the story. What I'm interested in is the stories that we tell ourselves about each other, and this current climate of Indigenous affairs under Closing the Gap suggests that black lack is the problem here.
"It's a matter of ignorance in this country. And the only way that we're going to change that is fundamentally change the structure of this nation, to constitutionalise power for us so that they're forced to listen to us.Social change consultant Erfan Daliri said to change the conversation"we need to change the language."
"Australia Day to me is a symptom of a root issue, that occupancy was acknowledged but ownership wasn't. And when that happened, it removed our humanity," he said. "[It was] one of the few times being on our television screens in our everyday lounge rooms, all of a sudden, we heard this new black voice from the Tent Embassy, and I am so proud that my father [Frank Roberts] was there. And some of the words that he spoke with Gough Whitlam actually resonate today," she said.
"The messenger breathes the truth, for the journey, an important one, History was one about birthright, Bundjalung musician Troy Cassar-Daley was then introduced to the show by Narelda Jacobs and he performed 'Shadows on the Hill' from his latest album 'The World Today'.Lawyer and Human Rights Advocate Nyadol Nyuon and lawyer Azmeena Hussain OAM were introduced into the discussion to provide more multicultural perspectives and asked about their feelings on the day.

Two years since first confirmed COVID-19 case arrived in AustraliaSince January 2020, almost 1.9 million infections have been reported nationwide. 9News Missed the point again most of the first infections come from a boat called the Ruby Princess full of hillsong cultists It would seem from that happening, that politicians are not judged on what they do day to day, but how they handle the inevitable crisis that might arise. 2 years of horror caused by GOVERNMENTS, 2 years of my life and millions of others wasted. For what? The politicians responsible should be charged with crimes against humanity.
