NAIDOC Week 2-9 July 2023
Written by 3MDR on July 3, 2023
The 2023 NAIDOC Week theme is “For Our Elders” and is a call for us all as a nation to pause, deeply listen to and pay tribute to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders who have left us and honour those who continue in their footsteps.
3MDR’s own Larry Lyrebird will be spinning First Nations tracks in between all our live programs this week, and join us Tuesday morning at 10am for a special broadcast from The Real Podcast, where Mayrah Sonter chats with Yawuru woman Shannan Dodson, daughter of esteemed Aboriginal leader, Mick Dodson, and change maker and social advocate in her own right. Hear Shannan talk about her role in establishing the world’s first Indigenous residential college, her approach to negative media commentary, and what it was like growing up with one of Australia’s most respected Aboriginal leaders as a father.
