On 26 January 2025, over 700 people marched as one strong mob on the streets of Geelong to Cry for Truth & Justice in a powerful rally. We heard from amazing speakers including:

Layna Hokianga-Pouaka, Maori First Nations from Aotearoa

Professor Andrew Gunstone, Co-Chair of Reconciliation Victoria

Dr Sarah Mansfield, Greens Member for Western Victoria, Councillor Elise Wilkinson, City of Greater Geelong Councillor, Noor Al-Assafi, Activist and Social Worker

The rally was endorsed by Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Corporation and the Wathaurong Aboriginal Co-operative, and supported by regional Reconciliation groups, including Geelong One Fire and Surfcoast for Reconciliation.

Be Tru to Uluru thank those who donated on the day, however the rally organisers still incurred significant expenses, including purchasing a sound system, AV gear, and other related equipment to make the event run smoothly and safely. Any money raised will go to Be Tru to Uluru's operating account not individuals.

Be Tru 2 Uluru would like to say thank you, to all you deadly Mob who attended our Cry for Truth & Justice community rally last weekend and would be so grateful for donations on this Go Fund Me to cover our costs and support ongoing truth telling and justice efforts in the Geelong area in 2025.

Nyatne (thank you in Wadawurrung language) - Always Was Always Will be Aboriginal Land
