A Vision of Unity: Centenary of the Baha’i Faith in Australia

April 18, 2021, in Videos > History, by

This short video, produced by the Australian Baha’i Community, shares how Clara and John Henry Hyde Dunn arrived onto Australian shores on 10 April, 1920 and were the first Baha’is in the country. They spoke about and demonstrated the principles of the Baha’i Faith with all they met. The Dunns are like the seeds of an enduring legacy, not only for the Australian Baha’i Community, but for all of Australia and Australian society.
