Postponed from July due to COVID-19, NAIDOC Week 2020 is being held from 8-15 November 2020. For this week’s episode, Tex returns to the show and joins Cal to talk to Peter Waples-Crowe. Peter is a Ngarigo artist and community health worker with Thorne Harbour Health’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Project. Peter talks about how NAIDOC came about and some of the events planned for this year’s line-up.

Then Carleen Miller and Natalie Tieri from the Royal Eye and Ear Hospital to talk about supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities through the hospital’s Mirring Ba Wirring service as well as some of the health issues faced by our First Nations communities.
