(Part 1 of 2) Gender and Ethnic Equality - with Marijke Bassani

"Racism doesn't look like it did in the '50's and the '40's; it evolves over time. It's a living thing.

Look at the systems in place in our society – the structures are built on white being at the top. That's a fact." - Marijke BassaniWhat is life like for a young Indigenous woman growing up in Cape York? What challenges do they face when they leave their community...

The Last Refuge for Education | The Cape York Girl Academy - with Shoba Kalos and Baressa Frazer
