Turns out the Indigenous Leaders & Elders who spent years consulting before crafting the #UluruStatement knew what Indigenous people wanted & needed.
The Indigenous people hired by the Liberal party to represent Indigenous people didn't have a clue...or were they just liars?

This is the open letter anti-Australia activists wrote after losing the #VoiceToParliament referendum, attacking Australians as shameful &Australia as an illegitimate nation.
I suspect it has same authors as #UluruStatement
They didn't manage to get anyone to sign it this time.
Some poetry I'd like to share. I'll let the words speak for themselves.

It is what the majority of #IndigenousAustralians wanted.๐๐
As #AlboPM said in his speech, 'Tomorrow we must seek a new way forward with the same optimism.'
Following a Week of Silence to grieve the #Voice #Referendum outcome, First Nations leaders, community members & orgs who supported Yes have published an open letter to the Australian Prime Minister, all MPs & Senators. #StatementForOurPeopleAndCountry
