“I’m getting calls every day from people who want to come to the upcoming refugee rights rally in Canberra. People who have been part of the community for ten years, and are devastated. I’m getting calls from people in detention, people who celebrated when the Liberals were kicked out, and are now realising that nothing will change for them.”
“Change is not going to come through parliament, it’s going to come now by just how loud our voices are.”
Today, community activists gathered outside Town Hall to protest against the Federal Government’s treatment of asylum seekers and refugees amid multiple crises across Ukraine, Sri Lanka, Myanmar and elsewhere.
The rally happens annually at the start of Holy Week.
Police moved protesters along throughout the whole action.
