Reconciliation Tasmania are excited to announce two keynote speakers for the 2024 NRW breakfast in nipaluna/Hobart:
SHANE HOWARD – former Goanna band frontman, award-winning musician, and long-time reconciliation activist and; GED WATTS – a young palawa man who grew up immersed in cultural activities on-country, and whose powerful speech on reconciliation in the lead up to the Voice referendum drew a standing ovation.
Shane has been a vocal ally of First Nations people’s right to justice and self-determination for more than 40 years. As a member of Goanna, he penned the anthemic song ‘Solid Rock’ which became a foundation song for the path toward truth telling.
Shane will also perform during the breakfast, and tickets will sell fast.
Be sure to book early.
The NRW theme for 2024 is Now More Than Ever: a reminder to us all that no matter what, the fight for justice and the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people will —and must —continue.
