Great Southern Lands: Aboriginal Country Special

Melbourne, 08.02.23

A special Great Southern Lands, with one hour of Australian Aboriginal country and western. From Yorta Yorta to Yankunytjatjara, the Pitjantjatjara people of Central Australia, to the Kaurareg of Torres Strait, these songs are a special glimpse into decades of colonialisation, genocide, disenfranchisement and persecution - as well as strength, power and connection to country.

An important reminder of the proud legacy of over 60,000 years of continual settlement, 250 distinct languages, and 245 years of White-settler rule.
