'They found her grave': The words a stolen boy waited decades to hear More than 100 Stolen Generations survivors have gathered in Canberra for the apology anniversary. The government is pledging new money to help them heal.

This the never ending tragedy of this colony.
A son here, never to see a mother again.
Multiply this by communities and by generations of the same shameful white govt and worker behaviours of forced removals.

To the #StolenGenerations, I say the following: as PM of Australia, I am #Sorry.
I offer you this apology without qualification.
We apologise for the hurt, pain & suffering that we, the parliament, have caused you.
We apologise for the indignity, degradation and the humiliation these laws embodied.

Idk about you, but I personally emailed the #Whitehouse on #ElectionNight 2024 and sent an #SOS

Protests sparked after Greenlandic baby taken from mother in Denmark Ivana Nikoline Brønlund’s baby was taken from her an hour after giving birth, after she was subjected to banned “parenting competence” tests.

How is that in Australia almost 600 First Nations People have died in police custody since the 1991 Royal Commission and not one person has been held accountable? #Racism and #WhitePrivilege, that's how. #StopDeathsInCustody #RaiseTheAge #StolenGenerations #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe
