Canberra Raiders Men’s Indigenous Jersey 2020
The Raiders jersey design incorporates artwork related to Reconciliation Public Holiday which took place Monday, June 1, 2020.
The ACT became Australia’s first jurisdiction to proclaim a Reconciliation Day holiday when a bill amending Australia’s Holidays Act was passed by the ACT Legislative Assembly. It received tripartisan support. This public holiday marks the anniversary of the 1967 Australian Referendum. It marks the start of National Reconciliation Week.
In an Australian referendum held on 27 mai 1967, the Holt government approved two amendments of the Australian constitution that related to Indigenous Australians. The amendments received unanimous support from 90.77% and were carried in six States. The amendments amended sections 51(xxvi), 128, and included Aboriginal Australians into the determinations of the population. They gave the Federal parliament the authority to legislate for this particular racial group.
The 1962 amendments did not give Aboriginal citizens the right, however, to vote. The amendments did not grant citizenship for Aboriginal people, as the most discriminatory federal or state laws were repealed in 1967.
This Indigenous Jersey will be worn by Raiders NRL in Round 12 of 2020 NRL Season
