Today we are beginning a several month program on the theme of Apology — apologies we need to receive, apologies we need to give, apologies to our bodies, apologies to the Earth, all within the framework of reconciliation, reparation, forgiveness and healing. Apology is the gateway. We will mobilize toward a global Day of Apology May 26 to coincide with the National Sorry Day in Australia demanded by the indigenous peoples there for what the Australians did to them and especially in abducting their children.
