Stolen Generations survivors are sounding the alarm, urging Queensland and Western Australia to commit to reparations before it is too late.
Wilman and Noongar man Tony Hansen was removed from his family when he was just three years old, and placed at Marribank Baptist Mission, almost 300 kilometres south of Perth."Our families are living and walking with this trauma that they’re faced with all their life," Mr Hansen, the co-chair of Bringing Them Home WA, told NITV's The Point.
"It’s sad to know that survivors are taking whatever reparation they can get because they know that their time on this earth is finished and they have a very short space, before they pass away.Professor Steve Larkin says survivors have waited long enough for redress.The Healing Foundation, a national body supporting Stolen Generations survivors, called on governments to act.
