THE LONG WALK - DREAMTIME AT THE G 2022 + 2024

We teamed up with the Essendon Football Club and The Long Walk to create a House of Darwin X Long Walk banner for the players to run through at the Dreamtime at the G game in Melbourne.

It’s been 20 years [2024] since Michael Long left his home in the suburbs of Melbourne to make a stand against racism by walking the 650km journey to Parliament House in Canberra. He was determined to get the then Prime Minister of Australia, John Howard to put First Nations issues back on the national agenda.

Over the years, Michael’s Long Walk has become a mission of hope. What started as a walk fuelled by pain and frustration has become a walk fuelled by hope and pride with Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians coming together to celebrate First Nations culture.
