This episode I'm talking with one of Australia's leading historians, Professor Mark McKenna, about why a vital Indigenous Voice to Parliament needs to be enshrined in our constitution.
We also discuss how our nation becoming a republic is intertwined with this cause.
Mark is the author of numerous award winning books on Australia's history. His most recent, 'Return To Uluru', is a fascinating account of a true story from the 1930's that reflects the injustices inflicted on our First Nations People from European colonisation.
Whilst Mark is a strong supporter of Australia becoming a republic, he makes clear why accepting the Uluru Statement From The Heart's primary purpose of having an Enshrined Indigenous Voice to Parliament, needs to happen first.
So sit back for an illuminating and heartfelt discussion with Professor Mark McKenna.
