Those voting ‘No’ in the referendum often claim they have done their own research. But can they explain why their research has led them to the complete opposite conclusion to that of people who have devoted much of their lives to this question? People with vastly more knowledge than them on this subject and many with lived experience? Marcia Langton, Noel Pearson, Julian Leeser, Pat Dobson, Linda Burney, not to mention the representatives of the majority of Indigenous peoples, who created the Uluṟu statement? Most former and present premiers and prime ministers also support the Voice.
Any non-Indigenous person who does reach a contrary conclusion to these authorities should consider their real motives for denying our Indigenous people a Voice.
