Australia says ‘Yes’: A playlist to celebrate equal love

After a long and gruelling campaign, Australia has said ‘yes’ to same-sex marriage.

While there is still more work to do to ensure that Australia moves to legalise same-sex marriage, right now is the time to celebrate! Australia, and the rest of the world have already begun and so can you!

If you’re an international student who does indeed support Australia’s decision and are in favour of the ‘yes’ vote, you aren’t excluded from the party! And to help, we’ve compiled a playlist to celebrate to!
