Co-edited by Dr Shireen Morris, Senior Lecturer and constitutional law expert in the Macquarie Law School, Statements from the Soul is a collection of passionate essays from religious leaders arguing for a First Nations Voice to be enshrined in the Australian Constitution.

Drawing on their own spiritual beliefs, contributors from Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim and Sikh communities powerfully convey their arguments for why a First Nations Voice to Parliament is necessary and why the Uluru Statement offers a profound opportunity to heal the wrongs of the past and ensure a better future for all Australians.

“These essays showcase the growing multifaith and multicultural support for the Indigenous Voice Referendum, making the moral case for the Uluru Statement from the Heart,” says Dr Morris.
