In the next 6 months Australians are required by law to vote in a national referendum. We will be asked if we support the creation of an Indigenous Voice to Parliament. This Voice to Parliament will be an advisory body comprising Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, to represent the views of Indigenous communities to federal government.
I have made the decision to vote No in the Voice to Parliament referendum. And yes, I do feel somewhat guilty for doing so — but that is part of the issue, and probably the reason why I decided for the No vote.
