ABC Local Radio’s Speaking Out show presents cultural, lifestyle and political issues affecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders (airs Sunday 9.30pm – 10pm AEST). On July 1 1990, Speaking Out went to air for the first time making it the first program of its kind; a national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders affairs show produced and presented by Indigenous broadcasters. Since its very first program, Speaking Out has covered a wide range of topical issues and profiled well-known and emerging Indigenous activists, performers, artists and actors. The Speaking Out CD features Indigenous music that has been an ever-present and important core of the program.
The CD features tracks from Geoffry Gurrumul Yunupingu, Archie Roach, Jessica Mauboy, Ruby Hunter, Dan Sultan, Kev Carmody and many more. We have five copies up for grabs. Simply shoot an email to editorial@bmamag.com telling us about your favourite Indigenous artist.
