In 1965, students from Sydney boarded a bus and travelled rural NSW, to highlight the marginalisation of Aboriginal people. They played a critical role in the successful 1967 referendum, which allowed Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to be counted as part of the population.
Four decades later, staff and students at education institutions across Australia again make history –without even having to get on a bus.
