This is an important thing to remember. Australia is not much better. Our country has had such a long history of Racism since it's colonisation by the British people in 1788. It was sorry day on Tuesday, a day that has to exist due to our people's past and present wrongdoings.https://twitter.com/amymcquire/status/1266571471297540100 …

It was a good start, remembering that before its inception, there was no attempt to reconcile for past mistakes. I agree with you though, more should be done.

In 2008, after 150+ years of slavery, stealing children from their families and oppression of the Aboriginal people, Kevin Rudd gave a half assed apology which was a RECOMMENDATION?? by the The National Inquiry into the Separation of Aboriginal Children from their Families.

If an apology has to be a recommendation then I'm sorry it's not good enough lol

I 100% agree. Racism and all forms of discrimination is bad, unhelpful to society and unnecessary and simply saying sorry doesn't actually mend the severed relationships of the past.
