“here’s 3 simple things we should be working on”.
Three things to work on would be truth, treaty and voice? Those aren’t simple though.
I think the nation accepting the voice would have been a step towards reconciliation, since it would have been a sign showing the nation accepts wrongs that exist in its history.

no, they are buzz words that could apply to a number of things given different context. A list of actionable items makes things achievable. Voice is dead in the water, Murdoch and limp dicked support from the albo government saw to that. So what can we actually DO to help here.
Thats the part I never see articulated.

They really aren’t buzzwords, it’s simply a short way of describing what the Uluru statement proposed. The issue is that the failure of the voice both encouraged the right wing to shit on indigenous issues and tell labor that it’s not worth the political capital to touch you indigenous issues.
If you want concrete policy goals then you could look at the royal commission into aboriginal deaths in custody and email your MP to act on the recommendations. Or see if you get anything out of the reports from the yoorrook commission if you’re in vic.
