Event description

National Apology Day remembers the official apology to the children and families traumatized by past forced child removal and assimilation government policies in 20th century Australia. 

National Apology Day provides an opportunity to seek healing and pursue reconciliation in Australia. Furthermore, it emphasizes the need to close the gap of discrimination, unjust treatment, racism, and abuse of human rights in Australia towards Indigenous citizens, families, and communities.

This year we will be screening the speech by Kevin Rudd where he apologises to the Stolen Generations as well as the video created by Wagga Wagga City Council with the Elders and community for previous Apology Day's.

Afterwards you are welcome to stay and chat about the speech and any issues raised in the videos.
