Summary: Australia is on the brink of a landmark decision to establish a First Nations Voice to Parliament that will be enshrined in the Constitution. From there, treaty-making and truth-telling will follow. But how do we cut through the debate, get to the heart of the issue and vote in the best interests of Indigenous people and our country? In On the Voice, Kimberley-born Indigenous business leader Charles Prouse outlines what the Voice to Parliament means and what it will achieve. He discusses where the conversation is at, what's led us to this point and why debate is still raging. Combining his own reflections gleaned from over 20 years working in Indigenous affairs with insightful commentary from people close to him, Prouse explains what a 'yes' vote in the referendum will mean and why it's so important for our nation.
