Twenty years after Michael Long first walked from Melbourne to Canberra to put Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander issues on the national agenda, the former AFL star is again heading to Australia's capital on foot - with support from the Andrews Labor Government. Premier Daniel Andrews, Minister for Treaty and First Peoples Gabrielle Williams and hundreds of supporters today joined Mr Long at Melbourne Town Hall as he spoke to supporters and set off on his journey. What started out of frustration almost two decades ago has become a movement of supporters, who join Michael on his walk for better outcomes for First Nations Australians.
