Applause DEBRA CORNWALL It was in this climate, Faith Bandler, a daughter of a South Sea Islander slave, began pressing a simple proposition for equal citizenship rights — a decade-long campaign that captured the mood for change and an overwhelming yes vote at the 1967 referendum.

DEBRA CORNWALL The panel say this time round, the prohibition of race discrimination should be included in the Constitution, along with the advancement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and a recognition of their relationship with the land, their cultures, heritage and languages.
