Alex's feedback:

"I think that you've done a nice job of explaining what the Apology Speech was and why it was a big step forward for Australia as a whole, but I think it would be good to include a bit more context about the speech. You do touch on what made the speech so important, but I think the reader would benefit from a bit more information about the treatment of indigenous peoples in Australia with specific examples, statistics, and sources. As well, the essay could use a good round of proofreading, as there are a number of grammar, punctuation, and sentence construction issues that are a bit distracting. You will also want to make sure that you include a "References" page with the full reference entries of your sources so that your attribution meets the requirements of APA style."
