I was 10 years old when I was taken from my home. The stolen generations never ended | Vanessa Turnbull-Roberts
It’s been 15 years since the national apology. We must bring our children home
The same year the then prime minister Kevin Rudd gave his national apology to those impacted by forcible removal was the same year I was removed from my very own family and community. It was 2008, late at night, police officers and a First Nations case worker arrived. I was in bed, about to close my eyes.
The stolen generations has never stopped. I grew up in community where my people continue to be disproportionately impacted by the law. Where state surveillance is all too common.
