The Mildura Anti-Racism Community Yarning Circle

Stan Grant will give a keynote speech and after a short dinner break will then facilitate a panel discussion including:

• Ro Allen - Victorian Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commissioner
• Indi Clarke - Executive Officer of the Koorie Youth Council
• Robby Wirramanda Knight - artist, singer, songwriter, and Operations Development Officer of First People Millewa-Mallee Aboriginal Corporation
• Vivienne Nguyen - Victorian Multicultural Commission Chair
• Claudine Uwamahoro - Rwandan migrant, Aged Care Worker in Mildura
  
• Dean Wickham - former EO of Sunraysia Mallee Ethnic Communities Council, and Honorary Consul for Solomon Islands in Victoria

Talking from the heart about racism, we will have deep conversations about the pressures on Aboriginal and culturally and linguistically diverse people in our communities, and share about our personal journey. We want to talk together about how we will address local racism.

Through a safe, mediated process community members can submit questions to the panel, and continue the conversation during dinner and after the evening's formalities.
