Uluru and the Australian Constitution

The big Uluru meeting of a wide representation of indigenous Australians about recognition of Australia's First Peoples is almost upon us.  Today I saw Andrew Forrest and Jack Thompson, two champions of the cause of the rights of indigenous Australians, beseech the participants to speak as one during this momentous meeting so that the referendum on recognition can happen with a positive outcome.  They were confident the referendum will be carried in the affirmative for recognition and so am I.  There would be only a small minority of Australians who would vote against this outcome and hopefully this small minority represent those who have not taken the time to follow the progress towards this referendum.

May the Force be with all Australians on this watershed historical occasion.
