Sorry
February 13, 2008
Not a long post- but I just wanted to acknowlege a momentous event. After 10 years and much debate, the Australian government has finally apologised to the Aboringinal community for the Stolen generation.
If you don’t know about it, google it, and if you are Australian- you are truly ignorant.
I wanted to listen live, but had to work- however the description of the tent embassy breakfast on the radio made me cry. For probabaly the only time in my life, I wanted to be in Canberra today.
