Sorry

I am proud to be an Australian today.

Our government has finally stood up, owned responsibility and apologised for a very dark time in Australia's history.

The Stolen Generation - the children, the parents, the families - have finally been given official recognition for the wrongs done to them by the policies of our past governments.

Through our government officially accepting responsibility and owning what occurred, we as a nation can embark on a new journey.

The air has been cleared so to speak and we now share a space for beginning a journey of healing together.
