Listen "First Things First: Let's Chat Jan 26th"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to the brand new version of our podcast - First Things First. There's a lot of misinformation and not enough education on why Australia Day should be celebrated on a day other than Jan 26th, and we're aiming to help with that today. Brooke and Matty also chat about their experience growing up celebrating Australia Day at school, and how those memories contributed to them feeling triggered by the Australian Flag now. Plus why Indigenous communities call Jan 26th, invasion Day or Survival Day and how allies can help. Nova Entertainment acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation. We pay our respect to Elders past and present.
