DESCRIPTION:

National Sorry Day marks and remembers the mistreatment of Australia’s aboriginal people by the crown and government throughout history.

May 26, 1997, is the anniversary of the delivery of the report “Bringing Them Home: a Report of the National Inquiry into the Separation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children from Their Families” to the Australian Parliament.

A year later, on May 26, 1998, the first Sorry Day was observed in Australia. However, a decade later, a public apology from the highest office would occur.

On February 13, 2007, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd of Australia made the first public apology on behalf of the government to the indigenous people of Australia and its territories.
