26th May – National Sorry Day. This day was conceived in 1998 when the Bringing Them Home report was published and tabled in parliament, focusing on the Stolen Generation. In 2008, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd finally apologised in Parliament to all the nation’s indigenous peoples for the trauma caused by historical policies that saw children taken from their families, causing untold trauma that spans generations. It is a day of remembrance and commemoration and an opportunity for all Australians to acknowledge the past and try to build a stronger future with all indigenous communities. https://www.reconciliation.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/150520-Sorry-Day.pdf
