The team behind DoMore are encouraging people to better understand the the history of our First Nations people, addressing and acknowledging our own unconscious bias’ and ways to interrupt and talk about racism.
As actor Margot Robbie said: “There’s so much we can do, because it’s not enough to be not racist, we must be anti-racist.
“[Anti-racist is] not a label, that’s a mindset that we need to practise every day. And every day is an opportunity to do more, every day is an opportunity to put your hand up and be present and hold yourself accountable.”
