Episode Synopsis

Cameron Costello is a Quandamooka traditional owner and a former corporate lawyer. Until recently, he was the CEO of the Quandamooka Yoolooburrabee Aboriginal Corporation, (QYAC), the Aboriginal corporation overseeing native title on Minjerribah (Stradbroke Island), Mulgumpin (Moreton Island), and parts of the Redlands coast.
I talked to Cameron about the 16 year process the Quandamooka people went through to have their native title to Minjerribah (Straddie) recognised, about life on the frontline of the struggle for Aboriginal justice, and about what he thinks a genuinely reconciled Australia would look like.
Deep North acknowledges the traditional owners of Meanjin/Brisbane, the Turrbul and Jagera people, and pays respects to elders past, present, and emerging.
