SUMMARY:2000: 350\,000 people walk for reconciliation in Melbourne and Perth
DESCRIPTION:The Melbourne walk\, starting at Flinders Street Station and finishing at King’s Domain gardens\, drew as many as 300\,000 people. \n\n\n\nThe bridge walk and similar events across Australia were enormously important in showing that public sentiment was moving towards support for more concrete steps in the reconciliation process. Though the event was organised by Aboriginal people those taking part were from all sections of the Australian community. \n\n\n\nImportantly\, the walks were not a protest but a peaceful demonstration that reflected a shift in the public mood and a growing awareness of the importance of reconciliation and a need for a national apology. \n\n\n\nWalk for reconciliation\, National Museum Australia \n\n\n\nFor reflection\n\n\n\nDid you\, or someone you know\, participate in a walk for reconciliation? How did you / they feel that day? And how do you / they feel about action for reconciliation now? \n\n\n\nTewnty years later\, how might we take up and support the Uluru Statement from the Heart?
