391 Words2 Pages

Have you ever blown out the candle on your birthday cake and wished for something you really wanted? Chances are, you have. The day after your birthday you probably looked around for it, but it was not there. Then you probably got sad and wanted to cry that whole day. That’s why I would like to use the $250 to make T-shirts to sell. I will give the money we make to the Make A Wish Foundation. Make A Wish gives kids with life threatening diseases one wish so they can go somewhere, have something, or do something they would love. The Make A Wish Foundation has granted over 180,000 wishes nationwide. Make A Wish Iowa grants a wish every other day. Any child between the ages 2 ½ - 18 that has a life threatening disease can register for a wish.

And so it should be held at an alternative date, where Australian citizens feel worthy of their identity and not cheated by it. However, the celebration shouldn’t be adapted to like that of other commemorations like ANZAC day. Essentially, this day will always be a tragic memory for the indigenous and be viewed as the invasion of their homeland.
