This letter was sent to the editor of The Sydney Morning Herald today.
Dear Editor.
Having not ceded sovereignty, the flag for Australia is the Aboriginal flag.
Whether The Voice is enshrined in the constitution or not,
There is no better way to show respect to our First Nations People
Than to adopt the Aboriginal flag as the Australian flag.
The values embedded in the flag
Represent the values shared across the Australian community
With respect to Country and to all living creatures on that Country.
Those values extend to every place and to every community everywhere.
This is their Country.
This is their flag
They have accepted our presence.
We thank them.
The Aboriginal Flag
