It's just word going. 19 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 2: Now it's time to step back outside of the political bubble. 20 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 2: I'll take you to a remote town in northern Western 21 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 2: Australia to hear some of the voices that are often 22 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 2: missing from our political conversation. 23 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 5: Well, I don't trust the government. Why should I. 24 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 3: Our children are voiceless, our women are voiceless. 25 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 2: Episode three, Fitzroy Crossing. It's time for a bit of 26 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: a change of pace. While this episode is still very 27 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 2: much about the voice, I'm not going to talk about 28 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 2: it for a little while. Instead, I'm going to take 29 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: you back to where I was standing just a couple 30 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 2: of weeks ago. I'd arrived at the coastal town of 31 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: Broom in northern Wa and was traveling inland to a 32 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: town called Fitzroy Crossing. The landscapes in this part of 33 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 2: the country are astonishingly beautiful. You get red sand meeting 34 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: bright blue ocean. As you drive inland towards Fitzroy Crossing, 35 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: the scenery changes. It's flat, it's dry, and it's hot. 36 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 2: Pretty much as close to the stereotypical out back landscape 37 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: as you can imagine, so much so that it's difficult 38 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: to imagine. Only a few months before our visit, the 39 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: whole area was underwater. The town of Fitzroy Crossing gets 40 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 2: its name because it's a river crossing town across the 41 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: mighty Fitzroy River. When I arrived, the Fitzroy River was 42 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 2: dry as a bone, but in January it reached its 43 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: highest evil level and caused a flood all through the 44 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: local area. Okay, so we're sitting here looking out over 45 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: the construction side of the new bridge across the Fitzroy River, 46 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: which is one of the things that came out of 47 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 2: the floods that were here earlier this year. Can you 48 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: tell me a bit about, firstly, the devastation of the 49 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 2: floods themselves. 50 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 6: A lot about Bunaber communities are on the floodplain upstream 51 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 6: from this bridge. 52 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: This is Bounaber elder Joe Ross, who showed us building 53 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: after building which had been rendered uninhabitable by these. 54 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 6: Floods, and so we lost the About eighty percent of 55 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 6: the damages of houses and communities has been in our 56 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 6: communities and we've been patiently waiting for temporary housing. 57 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 2: The flood was clearly devastating, but what took me by 58 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: surprise was the way that Joe spoke about it as 59 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 2: an opportunity and. 60 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 6: The silver lining out of it is there's a focus 61 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 6: now on Fitzroy and it's really raised the overcrowding and 62 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 6: the struggles our communities had. 63 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: Federal and state governments who wanted to help with flood 64 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 2: relief needed to understand what the community wanted. So a 65 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,839 Speaker 2: committee was set up. It included the five First Nation 66 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: groups with recognized traditional ownership in Fitzroy Crossing. 67 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 6: And then government started listening to us, both the state 68 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 6: and the Comwealth. And it's what we believe as native 69 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 6: title holders that we should be front and center of 70 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 6: all decision making. So it worked pretty well. 71 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 2: One of the first things this committee did was ensure 72 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 2: that locals would be employed on rebuilding projects, both to 73 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: rebuild housing and the multimillion dollar project to rebuild the bridge. 74 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 4: We have thirty eight people working on the bridge. 75 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: Rene Dingo runs the local men shed and he was 76 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: a member of the committee. 77 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 7: And that would not have happened if we didn't have 78 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 7: an indigenous committee speaking directly to government, and government hearing 79 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 7: what that working group is saying and then saying, Okay, 80 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 7: we've got to make this happen. 81 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 2: But not everybody we spoke to was quite so positive 82 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 2: about the way that government worked with this committee. 83 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 5: My name's Bobby Bedford, and yeah, I live and work 84 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,679 Speaker 5: in fitz Through Crossings. So I'm a one of a 85 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 5: woman born of my n Gidya as well from my grandfather. 86 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: Bobby Bedford is a young language teacher. 87 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 5: We did not get treated with as much care as 88 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 5: I think a non Indigenous town would have. Community came 89 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 5: forward with all of their concerns and none of them 90 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 5: were addressed. I was at those meetings and they said, 91 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 5: this is an issue culturally, this is an issue. Culturally, 92 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 5: this is an issue. So they just weren't heard and 93 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,239 Speaker 5: there was no accountability for them to be heard anywhere. 94 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: This feeling of being ignored was a common theme in 95 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: my conversations in Fitzroy Crossing. 96 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 3: We're supposed to have shared decision making, but that's not 97 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 3: what we see. 98 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 2: Emily Carter has lived in Fitzroy Crossing since nineteen ninety four. 99 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 3: My mother's a gone Andy woman from this area, and 100 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 3: my father is a Gija man from the East Kimberly, 101 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 3: and both my parents were members of the Stolen generation. 102 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 3: So I moved to Fitzroy in nineteen ninety four to 103 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 3: get to know my grandmother, who was still alive. 104 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 2: Emily now runs the local Women Center in Fitzroad Crossing. 105 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 3: So our organization started in nineteen ninety four from women 106 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 3: in our community that were wanting a safe space for 107 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 3: women that were escaping family violence. So we started off 108 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 3: with a refuge and since then we've grown where we 109 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 3: have a reparands supports for our women and children, so 110 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: we have a legal unit. We also have counselors and 111 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 3: social workers that work with our women around their safety 112 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 3: plans in order for them to be able to go 113 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 3: home in a safe way. 114 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 2: Emily says government policies to curb violence are failing because 115 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 2: people in Canberra don't understand what's happening here on the ground. 116 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:42,559 Speaker 3: Our outcomes is still determined by Canberra, by bureaucrats that's 117 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 3: down there that have no idea of the landscape in 118 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 3: which we live, or have any idea of the communities 119 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 3: in which we're servicing. 120 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,799 Speaker 5: We have a problem with youth crime. Lots of rural 121 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 5: towns and cities have problems with youth crime. Well it's 122 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 5: not just us. But the crazy thing with that is 123 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 5: we actually don't have many youth programs to engage children 124 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 5: and to keep them engaged and you know, out of trouble, 125 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 5: whereas twenty years ago we did. There were more programs 126 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 5: for children and for kids twenty years ago, but they've 127 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 5: been defunded. The school system is failing our children, but 128 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 5: they're not doing anything to change that we're still being 129 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 5: treated as if our children are the issue and the problem, 130 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 5: and why aren't they going to school. It's like they 131 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 5: are probably like so many reasons they're not going to school, 132 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 5: but why aren't you asking them? 133 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 4: You know, the rates of suicide, the rights of unemployment, 134 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 4: the rates of poverty, the rights of mental health issues. 135 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 4: FIT Through Crossing is one of the leading centers in 136 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 4: the whole of Australia and if not the world. 137 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 2: Rene Dingo says, a lot of these problems in FITS 138 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 2: Crossing can start to change when the community gets hurt. 139 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 4: So this working group that's happening right now, they're making 140 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 4: positive change and it's starting to you can see the 141 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 4: social change that it has on people on their families 142 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 4: because the people that's working on the bridge or the 143 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 4: people that's working in housing right now, they're walking around 144 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 4: with you know, positive they're walking around with their head 145 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 4: held high because right now their role models for their 146 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 4: kids and their kids are looking up and they're saying, 147 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 4: you know, they see positive role models. 148 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: So far, I haven't even mentioned the Voice, but a 149 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: lot of the people we spoke to, people who've taken 150 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: on positions of community leadership in Fitzroy Crossing are supporting 151 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 2: the S case. They don't necessarily think a voice is 152 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 2: going to fix everything, but in a context where just 153 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 2: about everything else has failed, they say they're willing to 154 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: give it a go. 155 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 3: Well, I know that is just to give advice to government, 156 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: but it's better than what we have now. 157 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: This is Emily Carter again. 158 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 3: Our communities are voiceless, our children are voiceless, our women 159 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: are voiceless. 160 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 6: I think if we could have a direct say in 161 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 6: our future. 162 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: This is what about Elder Joe Ross against. 163 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 6: And a contribution. You know, that might end up being 164 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 6: thinned down to a single representative. But at least we're 165 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 6: having our say and we're in charge of our destiny. 166 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 2: But that is not a universal view here. I fits 167 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 2: for a Crossing, and we do hear pretty consistently that 168 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: there are lots of people who are leaning towards voting no, 169 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: either because they don't have any trust in government or 170 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 2: because they just don't see how the voice is going 171 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 2: to be relevant to them. 172 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 5: And I've had a lot of the oldies come up 173 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 5: to me and we're like, well I'm voting now, and 174 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 5: all of them, mostly it's all of them who's just like, 175 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 5: well I don't trust the government, why should I? And 176 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 5: I'm like fair point. One of them was one of 177 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 5: my grandmothers, and I love how to bear and she 178 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 5: was like, we'll just keep doing what we're doing. Why 179 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 5: do we need them to interfere with us? 180 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 2: This was also a sentiment that we encountered on the road. 181 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: So you reckon? What do you reckon about the referendum? 182 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: Ah, I'm thinking a lot more not why is that? 183 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 5: I don't know? 184 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 4: Politics are politics? 185 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 3: I really understand. 186 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 6: The discussion around the constitution is a really abstract concept 187 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 6: to say, are you in support of the voice being 188 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 6: you know, change the constitution being changed? And absolute abstract 189 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 6: question to people. It really should be about if a 190 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 6: direct voice to help and support for your communities is 191 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 6: you know option for you? Is that what you want? 192 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 5: But I think it's also that generation of blackfellows that 193 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 5: I'm speaking to. They really had the worst of it 194 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 5: and they're like, well, we've survived this long and like 195 00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 5: we're doing it. 196 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 2: I have to admit I wasn't quite sure what to 197 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 2: expect in fits for a crossing, and I didn't know 198 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 2: how enthusiastic people would be to answer a bunch of 199 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 2: questions about the referendum to a journalist they'd never met before. 200 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 2: But instead, what I found is that people were really 201 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 2: enthusiastic to chat and what they all shared was a 202 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: frustration that the answers that they had at a community 203 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 2: level were not being heard by governments. And that's something 204 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 2: we've heard from just about everyone we've spoken to in 205 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 2: this series, from both the yes and no campaigns. 206 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 3: I got to say, there's not much difference between us. 207 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 4: This is why it's sad in a lot of ways, 208 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 4: because we're not that far apart. 209 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 2: That's no campaigner Warren Mundine you met on Monday. 210 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 5: Oh a great believe whether it's a yees or no. 211 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 6: The fifteenth of Okcober is when we roll our sleeves 212 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 6: up because we've got to we've got to move forward, 213 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 6: and we've got to do things that. 214 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 4: Improved the life of those people who are out there 215 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 4: in these situations. 216 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 8: Their reasoning for voting no is pretty much my reason 217 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 8: for voting yes. 218 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 2: This is Jade Richie, she's a Yes advocate. 219 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 8: If you don't trust government, then why would you not 220 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 8: want an independent advisory committee? Why would you not want 221 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 8: to stand up her committee? That is chosen by Indigenous people. 222 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 5: We can't keep thinking that someone else has the answers 223 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 5: for us, and we can't keep allowing them to pretend 224 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 5: like they have the answers for us, because they clearly don't. 225 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 3: Lastly, I just want to say, we're supposed to live 226 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 3: in a first world country and our people live in 227 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 3: fourth world conditions, and we talk about this place being 228 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 3: the lucky country. It's the lucky country for a few, 229 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 3: but not for Indigenous peoples. 230 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 2: That brings us to the end of our journey down 231 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 2: the road to the voice.
