Supporters of an Indigenous voice to parliament need to unify Australians in cities and towns, religions and ethnicities, finding the same courage as Vincent Lingiari did, leading activist Thomas Mayor says.
The Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islander man believes the 2023 referendum on a voice will be successful but proponents need to stop listening to naysayers.
"We cannot aim low. We must not dampen our aspirations for change. We must work hard," he said as he delivered the Vincent Lingiari Memorial lecture.
