Is There Too Much Explaining of the Backstory?

Footage from last month’s Invasion Day rallies around Australia featured speakers urging those gathered to vote ‘No’ in the promised Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum expected later this year. Most Australians would think the vast majority of First Nations people would support a ‘Yes’ vote – but that’s not necessarily the case.  

In this two-part special, we speak to advocates from both sides of the debate so we can better understand what’s at stake when we eventually get our chance to vote in the referendum.

In this episode, we hear from Bridget Cama, who is Co-Chair of the Uluru Youth Dialogue, a law graduate and Wiradjuri and Pasifika Fijian woman. She tells us why she’s supporting the voice.
