Donated by Diana Pittock

Museum of Australian Democracy collection

The donor of this badge, Diana Pittock, writes:

As someone working for social justice in various ways it is important to me that people have the right to voice their views. When governments and others determine policies or systems that are unjust or harmful to sections of society it is the time to speak out. This is what should happen in democracy, not that we are always heard, nor agreed with.

These badges were worn at various rallies and in campaigns saying it is our right to voice our views.
