The Royal Historical Society of Victoria acknowledges that today is Sorry Day. We must remember the pain and trauma experienced by Indigenous families across the nation, due to the removal of many Indigenous children in jurisdictions across Australia during the twentieth century. We need to also acknowledge that inappropriate removals of children from First Nations families and communities continues. This must end as a matter urgency and Indigenous families receive the support they need. Reconciliation Week with the theme ‘Be Brave, Make Change’ begins tomorrow. The RHSV is now cataloguing in new ways to give full acknowledgment of Indigenous presences and Indigenous knowledges in our collection. My president’s report in the June History News discusses what decolonising our collection means. The RHSV in March 2022 held its inaugural annual Indigenous lecture, given by Professor Julie Andrews, professor of Indigenous Research at La Trobe University. The newly- installed members of Council at our recent AGM will undergo Cultural Competency training. May we all remember that this country has two histories that must both be known, respected and told as a matter of truth. Richard Broome AM FRHSV President
