Stand with Adam Goodes
To Adam Goodes:
As Australians of all ages and backgrounds, we applaud your courage and leadership in speaking out about the issues of race that still exist in our nation. We are deeply disappointed by the crowds that have booed you -- they do not speak for us or for the majority of Australians who want to live in a country that values our Indigenous people and our cultural diversity. We respect your decision to take time out, but we would love to see you back on the field next Saturday against Geelong. Whatever you choose to do, please know that we stand with you.

In just over a week, Goodes’ Sydney Swans will play their next game away from home, against the Geelong Cats. It could be an occasion that rubs salt into the wound or one that begins a process of healing and leads to real change -- and it can start with us. Our voices combined can tell the story of the Australia most people want -- a country that values our cultural heritage and diversity -- and inspire others to do the same.
Add your name to stand with Adam and against racism, and share widely. When we get 30,000 signatures, we’ll work with the AFL to make sure our voices are heard around the ground next Saturday. Sign now.
