Sorry Day patron Sir Ronald Wilson, in a speech to mark the occasion, described the policy that resulted in so much human suffering as genocidal, and the period of child removal as one of the most dreadful in Australian history.
Around the country, members of the stolen generations, their supporters, and members of the general public commemorated the Day in unique style. In Melbourne, hundreds of people gathered in Federation Square to remember the lost children.
The effects of the Stolen Generation live on in the hearts and minds of every Indigenous Australian. National Sorry Day reminds us all to respect the trauma that our fellow Australians now hold in their cultural story. If you or your loved ones have been affected by the child removal policies and would like support in your healing journey, reach out to the Healing Foundation.
Alternatively, there are Link-Up services available across Australia to help members of the Stolen Generations reconnect with their families and find out about their family history.
