We want an end to the violence.

The tide of voices demanding change mounts. Like flood waters, in recent weeks, voices rise with each breaking story – of increasing rates of incarceration, violence against women and children, of police brutality. Revealing yet again the disproportionate levels of harm experienced by First Nations peoples in all reaches of Australia.
