    Dec 12 2024
    In this documentary, we explore the significance of NAIDOC Week in the Prison, a time to honor the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. This year’s theme, “Blak, Loud and Proud, and Keep the Fire Burning,” encourages strength and resilience, particularly following a challenging year for mob all over Australia. I hope to highlight the great work first nations advocates are doing in Ravenhall Correctional Centre.
