The R word is abroad again but it’s not Republic this time. The new campaign for the recognition of our Indigenous peoples in the Constitution, building on the Youmeunity campaign that ran for the last few years, launches today. R is for Recognise – a big red R on a black background. Good to see the R word back whatever it stands for. WfaAR strongly supports R for Recognise and R for Reconciliation as well as R for Republic.
