Spotlight: When Grace Tame and Brittany Higgins came to Canberra

Earlier this year, Brittany Higgins and Grace Tame went to Canberra together.

The day before, Prime Minister Scott Morrison had delivered an apology to people who had worked at federal parliament, who had been subjected to sexual harassment, assault and bullying.
