Episode Synopsis

Events have been held around the country to mark National Sorry Day, an acknowledgement of the forced removal of First Nations children from their families and culture.

As reconciliation week also begins, First Nations leaders are calling for truth-telling and concrete action from politicians to address ongoing disadvantage.
