Letβs see it to the end.

What a profound privilege to have been approached by our MΔori brothers and sisters across the ditch to help build support here in Australia for their campaign to see the Tino Rangatiratanga flag flown permanently on Aucklandβs Harbour Bridge.

When I met Cheree, she was afraid of heights & had never voted or campaigned.
Using @change she lobbied for 5 years to have the Aboriginal flag flown atop the Harbour Bridge.
She WON, conquered her vertigo and this #NAIDOCWeek2023 she leads the Burrawa @BridgeClimb! @ChangeAus
Ochred up on the deadly Burrawa climb to celebrate the one-year anniversary of the Aboriginal flag flying permanently atop the Sydney Harbour Bridge
A powerful reminder our Elders are acknowledged.
What a spectacular morning to open #NAIDOCWeek2023

It was an honour to participate in the ceremony for the Aboriginal Flag being raised over Marrickville Police Station. For the first time the Flag will now fly proudly and permanently there.
@Chereetokaβs successful struggle over the Harbour Bridge has set a great example.

This made me feel so proud to be Australian & so proud to know @Chereetoka who made this change, now being broadcast to the world.
Look at the Aboriginal flag, finally up there on our most famous landmark, interrupting colonialism, whilst also paying due respect. It feels right. β at Islington, London

Following a 5-year campaign by Kamilaroi woman @Chereetoka, the Aboriginal flag will fly permanently on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge after the NSW Government abandoned an expensive proposal to build a third flagpole, estimated to cost $25 million. youtu.be/ZEmYwd2R4eU
.@Luke_FoleyNSW has backed young Kamilaroi woman Cheree Toka's online campaign to have the Aboriginal flag on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge 365 days a year rather than the current 15 days. Report on 7 News at 6pm. yhoo.it/2DVNCtT #nswpol #7News

I am incredibly proud to announce that the Aboriginal Flag will now permanently fly on the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Such a fitting way to end NAIDOC Week 2022, the Aboriginal Flag will stand forever next to the Australian Flag on one of our nation's most iconic structures. β at Sydney, New South Wales
