The Apology

I don't think there has been a moment since 9am in which I have not had tears in my eyes.

I am so indescribably happy that the government has done this.

I am proud.

I fear that having made this gesture, Indigenous issues will be cast aside at a time when they are still relevant. It is very easy to get people to a "Sorry" rally, not so easy to campaign for needed resources. It just doesn't resonate the same.

Blah blah symbols are important apparently.

Gosh, you don't think that's why the apology came with a plan to drastically improve early childhood education?
