About this listen
On the eve of the 2023 Australian Referendum, in the very last episode of this first series on The Voice (First Nations Voice to Parliament), I discuss with the daughter of the late great film star and social justice advocate, Dr Rosalie Kunoth- Munks OAM (Jedda, 1955) why she would have voted No and recommended others to vote no. Gnarla Kunoth-Munks is a Arrernte, Anmatjere, Alywerr woman, who has lived on her country most of her life, currently based in Alice Springs, talks about her mother's political influence on her and why she will also be voting no, while also respecting everyone else's decision to vote how they wish.
I don't see this voice in this constitution making any difference to me or my people in our tribal homelands and already the government has stated that it will be in control of the set up so really, whose voice is it? (Kunoth-Monks, 2023)
We talk about our mutual experiences and emotions felt leading up to the referendum and try to envisage what the future might look like in light of a YES or NO.
