Episode description
Have indigenous Welcomes-to-Country gone too far?
On Friday, far-right hecklers disrupted the Welcome to Country (i.e. the land acknowledgment, in North American parlance) of a profound Australian national event, the Anzac Day Dawn Service.
The protest has sparked a national firestorm about race, racism and remembrance.
Josh shares his thoughts about the coverage of the controversy, and then debates its deeper implications with the Indigenous scholar Tyson Yunkaporta.
