Australian Multicultural Council statement on the Christchurch terror attack
18 March 2019
The Australian Multicultural Council condemns in the strongest terms the cowardly and senseless terror attack in Christchurch. We would like to express our deepest condolences to the families of the victims of this atrocity and affirm that we stand in solidarity with the people of New Zealand at this difficult time.
We call on all to unite against those who would use violence to further their own agendas. Such actions are abhorrent and irreconcilable with the values our free, tolerant and democratic society holds dear. In the face of hate and intolerance, we reaffirm our commitment to diversity and embrace mutual respect, equality, fairness and compassion as the key foundations for an inclusive and socially-cohesive society.
