Bay FM - 99.9FM Episode first aired on 13 November 2020 at 11:00 am
Today we reprise the Uluru Statement From The Heart and hear from local Arakwal woman Delta Kay as we celebrate NAIDOC Week. We also have a preview of Midnight Oil’s new album, The Makarrata Project, which features numerous Indigenous performers and shares the Makarrata message.
We hear a somewhat alternative analysis of the recent US election, where it seems Cannabis may have just become king; an anti-Adani activist shares the disturbing story of how the company hired an investigator to follow his wife and child; and author Ann Richards remembers what many describe as the dark days of the Jo Bjelke-Peterson era in Queensland as well as her escape to the Northern Rivers.
