Show Notes

This episode I had the great honour of talking with author and leading activist, Thomas Mayor, who carried the Uluru Statement from the Heart around Australia for 18 months from 2017. Thomas explains the three key elements of the Uluru Statement - Voice, Treaty and Truth, in particular, why our country needs an Enshrined Indigenous Voice to parliament. Our discussion helps to dispel confusion around what effect this change to our constitution will have and makes clear why this action is vital to the wellbeing of our First Nations people and therefore, to our nation as a whole. So sit back and enjoy this truly enlightening and inspirational talk with the irrepressible, Thomas Mayor.
