Why our Media Matters

In this episode of The Big Dorrie, your host Naomi Moran yarns with Walpiri woman and award winning journalist Rachael Hocking.

It’s a powerful yarn as they go deep into the importance of Blak media and journalism on all platforms, giving a proper and accurate voice to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander issues, keeping alive the fight for justice for grieving families, equality and human rights. 

So grab a cuppa, kick off your shoes, and join the mob for The Big Dorrie about everything Knowledge, Culture, Country and Connection.
