The above words taken from the finale of The Six Swans, a one act opera Tutti performed with UniSA students in June this year means a great deal to Tutti as we work for social change. They also remind us of the deep meaning in the story of the birth of Jesus and the themes of redemption, hope, salvation and love associated with Christmas. Let's make Christmas 2015 a time of caring, a celebration of true emancipation of the earth from racial and ethnic hatred. Regardless of our religious ties or other belief systems, this Christmas let's all take time to envision what kind of world we want to live in, and do what we can in our own lives to restore peace, love and goodwill to Australia and the world.”
