Walk Together takes place on Saturday 25 October.

 

In cities and regional centres all over Australia, you’re invited to join this celebration of diversity and present a picture to our leaders and media of the Australia that is possible. An Australia that recognises in its public debate, media conversation and legislation that we are all common people with common dreams. Equally deserving of freedom, fairness, opportunity to contribute, welcome and belonging.

 

We are common people with common dreams.

 

We believe Australians are a welcoming, generous and compassionate people. We believe an Australia where prejudice is unpopular and cruelty hurts at the polls, is possible. An Australia that recognises the equality and dignity of all people - no matter who you are, where you’re from or how you arrived here – and extends our values of fairness and friendship to everyone. We dream of a nation that celebrates diversity, made up of communities where people of our First Nations, asylum seekers, refugees, international students, skilled migrants and every other human being can experience the joy and security of belonging.

The Adelaide march was great.  People from so many diverse backgrounds and ages all together with a common purpose. No fear, no loathing, no telling anyone where they should go.  Happy day Smiley Very Happy   Mrs Wine even found a fellow Canadian to talk to in their special language Man Tongue while sat down and read my Red Flag
