Gunai Elder Aunty Marjorie Thorpe's testimony is a powerful account of the Stolen Generations and the ongoing trauma inflicted upon her people. She speaks to the wholesale removal of children, the fear of welfare, and the lasting pain and abuse endured in institutions within the Lake Tyers community. This video serves as a form of truth-telling, highlighting the injustices and the historical blight on this country, while also seeking a way forward for healing and peace.
