The Catholic, Uniting, and Anglican churches, the Australian National Council of Imams and the Executive Council of Australian Jewry on Friday will join Australian Sikhs, Buddhists, Hindus and the National Council of Churches in Sydney to endorse the Uluru Statement from the Heart, according to The Australian.
“It really doesn’t harm anyone but not moving does harm people, so let’s be on the right side of history with this,” Ms Watson told Sky News host Jenna Clarke.
