Plus: RN farewells All In The Mind’s Lynne Malcolm
| | Always Was, Always Will Be | |
This week is NAIDOC week, so it’s the perfect time to reflect on and celebrate the 2020 theme – Always Was, Always Will Be.
On The Book Show, musician Nardi Simpson talks about her pivot to writing fiction, and her new novel Song of the Crocodile.
On Soul Search, Torres Strait elder Rose Elu explains why she’s passionate about taking action on climate change.
And the History Listen profiles Thomas Shadrach James, a teacher whose students became some of the leading Indigenous activists of the 20th century.
This week we’re also sharing a new podcast from ABC Indigenous called Thin Black Line.
Hosted by award-winning investigating journalist Allan Clark, it’s a deep dive into what happened on the day Aboriginal teenager Daniel Yock died in police custody.
And we’re paying tribute to All In The Mind presenter Lynne Malcolm, who’s leaving the ABC after 38 years.
In this special Off Track feature, she tells Ann Jones all about her work on nature and conservation stories over the years – and reveals how it cost her a lung.
Until next time,
Rosie Ryan, digital editor
