This week on Blak Law: Tribal Edition (BLTE) – While some politicians continue to deal in division, First Nations governance is actively building the future.On BLTE, Bumi, Gaan-Yarra, and Murrumu unpack the widespread condemnation following resurfaced podcast comments by Pauline Hanson, in which she falsely and offensively described Indigenous Australians as "the most primitive". The team discusses the real-world impact of these racist remarks, the ensuing political backlash, and why this kind of rhetoric continues to surface in Australian politics.But the conversation does not stop at the controversy. The crew shifts gears to look at the powerful, proactive nation-building happening right now. We take a first look at the Sovereign Yidindji Government’s groundbreaking new proposals: the development of an international peace court and the establishment of the Yidindji University. What does it mean for a First Nations government to independently build institutions of global justice and higher education?Coming to you via NIRS – National Indigenous Radio Service, right here on BBM 98.7FM!
