Hear Stan Grant's moving reading of the Uluru statement in full and learn why - ahead of next year’s 250th anniversary of Captain Cook arriving in Australia - indigenous Australians believe there is no better time for a referendum to give all Australians a say on official recognition for Australia's First Peoples.
