Segments: 

- A speech from the Invasion Day rally in Djilang. Sherele Moody is Australia's leading femicide and child death researcher, an award winning journalist, a violence survivor and activist dedicated to ending all violence against women and children. Sherele is also the founder and operator of the red heart movement, the Australian femicide watch and all the associated projects, including the Australian femicide and child death map, and the memorial of women and children lost to violence. The memorial is designed to commemorate lives lost while providing a respectful and impactful forum highlighting the impact of violence on our community. It tracks every known Australian killed as a result of murder, manslaughter or neglect. This is an ongoing project, with no start or end date. The intention is to continue documenting violent deaths from white settlement to current day. The memorial also holds the stories of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women lost to violence and in limited cases, some of the victims are names and their images used.

First up, speeches from Aunty Wendy Brabham and Kiri Tawhai, introduced by Julie Saylor-Briggs at the Djilang (Geelong) Invasion Day rally.
