Prime Minister Anthony Albanese spoke at the Garma festival in northeast Arnhem Land and emphasized the importance of the upcoming referendum on an Indigenous voice for parliament. He compared this opportunity to the emu and kangaroo on the national crest, which symbolize progress and moving forward. Albanese highlighted that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are asking for a Voice that will make a positive difference and lead to progress. Aboriginal activist Noel Pearson also supported the referendum and called on Australians to vote ‘yes’. He emphasized the importance of recognizing Indigenous people in the constitution and creating unity among the different cultural histories in Australia. The Garma festival, hosted by the Yothu Yindi Foundation, brought together land councils to advocate for Indigenous people’s rights and support for the referendum. The alliance believes that the referendum is an opportunity to give Indigenous people a voice and influence over policies that affect them, leading to a truly united nation. Albanese paid tribute to the late Gumatj leader Yunupingu, who advocated for a constitutional voice for Indigenous Australians. He expressed his belief that the referendum has the power to shape a better future for Australia and called for unity and hope to vote ‘yes’ for recognition and progress.
