AWW23: Open Your Hearts Australia - Natalie Ahmat, Jack Latimore & Jodan Perry

Chair: David Nolan

Australians are now engaged in a national conversation about a change to the constitution to recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the First Nations of Australia and create a Voice to Parliament. It's been a struggle of decades - first in 1967, for the right be counted in the census, and now to be consulted about policies that impact First Nations people. In the lead up to the referendum, Natalie Ahmat, Jack Latimore and Jodan Perry, three of our leading Indigenous journalists, discuss the challenges in covering the Voice, meeting audience expectations and battling audience fatigue.
