This referendum is our chance to be on the right side of history. A successful referendum will be a unifying moment for our country. It is an opportunity to start to right the wrongs of our past and take a step towards a better, kinder Australia. The Voice is an important step towards First Nations justice and is the pathway to truth-telling and treaty making.
