This morning, Australia Day, I watched the WugulOra Morning Ceremony held at Barangaroo, NSW. SBS aired the ceremony. For me, the highlight was when First Nations people invited the audience to dance, with them as a guide: not one dance, but many. The audience joined. United.🙏🙏 https://t.co/2KoQsTU1Kr pic.twitter.com/7tDgtBvS7t

After all the noise and fluff of #AustraliaDay ceremonies, screened on SBS...a breathing space was screened...no words...just quiet music backing a camera roving over Australia's beautiful landscapes... and historical notes on the area screened to the side... Well done #SBS...
