> Hi knowledge lover,
> What would breaking the 200+ years of truth-telling silence in Lutruwita Tasmania achieve? Join us for the 2022 Japanaka errol West Lecture to unpack the issues. 
> The Uluṟu Statement from the Heart calls for truth, treaty and voice. These three elements of how this nation might forge a new, more equitable relationship between the continent’s First Peoples and those who arrived during and after colonisation are distinctive but interlinked. There can be no valid voice without treaty and no treaty without truth. And while the Uluṟu Statement sets out a national ambition, the lived reality of colonisation, historically and contemporaneously, is place bound.
> Lutruwita must face it’s own truth telling. But breaking 200+ years of silence, where only a small part of the story has been told and retold, is not without risks - for Palawa and for non-Aboriginal Tasmanians. In imagining what truth-telling might achieve, Maggie draws on her own Palawa storyline and experience as a Commissioner with the Victorian Yoorrook Justice Commission.
