Like I'm A Six-Year-Old 86 - First Contact Episode 2 Reaction (with Nayuka Gorrie)
Nayuka Gorrie returns to unpack Episode 2 of First Contact with me. It's bloody tough going as the episode looks at overcrowded housing and poverty in the NT town of Elliott and survivors of the Stolen Generation.
What does the airing of this show actually mean for Indigenous Australians? Why do some react to the stories of the Stolen Generation with blatant denialism? How can non-Indigenous people (try to) be better allies?
The World Keeps Happening is being filmed for Stan at the Comedy Theatre this Saturday December 3rd
