National Sorry Day (Australia)
National Sorry Day in Australia commemorates the anniversary of the 1997 tabling of the Bringing Them Home Report to Parliament. This important day acknowledges the mistreatment and injustices faced by Australia’s Indigenous population, particularly the trauma endured by the Stolen Generations. It is a time to reflect on the deep impact of past government policies that forcibly removed Indigenous children from their families, cultures, and communities. National Sorry Day also recognizes the strength, resilience, and ongoing struggles of Indigenous Australians. Through awareness, reconciliation efforts, and community events, this day seeks to foster healing, understanding, and unity among all Australians.
