Honi Soit stands behind a progressive Yes.
The campaign does not end with the outcome of the Referendum, but instead extends beyond, into truth-telling and treaty-making.
It is incumbent upon activists to continue fighting against child removals, over-policing, and disproportionate incarceration in Indigenous communities.
The Voice will help pave the way for these changes to occur, and afford First Nations people necessary and unprecedented representation in co-designing critical legislation and policy.
The reality of a referendum is that it creates a binary.
The people of this country have a choice — a choice to support First Nations people in their fight for self-determination or vote alongside those who seek to maintain a system which has divided Australia since the white settlers arrived in 1788.
Vote Yes to be on the right side of history.
