Good morning all,
We are now on the way to 7,500 signatures. But the job's not done. Yesterday, I received a letter from the Director of the War Memorial, doubling down:
'It is the Memorials intention to expand on the depiction and presentation of the violence committed against Aboriginal an Torres Strait Islander people that existed prior to the Development project ... The Memorial aims to broaden awareness and education through an inclusive presentation of frontier conflicts in a respectful and appropriate way in keeping with our mission and purpose'
What is proposed is NOT in keeping with the Memorial's mission and purpose. I have written another letter to the Chairman of the War Memorial Council protesting this desecration.
Please help me keep up the pressure.
keep safe
Peter
