Podcast appearances and mentions of david dungay jr

Acknowledgement of Country//Headlines//Labor's hate speech lawsReport released on Designated Area declarationsSenator Thorpe moves amendment to federal government's new gun control lawsHealthcare Workers Union members demand fair pay deal// Tarneen Onus Browne, Gunditjmara, Yorta Yorta, Bindal and Meriam person and community organiser, joined us to discuss the ongoing federal court challenge against Victoria Police's designated areas powers in the context of First Nations resistance movements. The case, brought by Human Rights Law Centre on behalf of Tarneen, Benny Zable and with new applicant David Hack, questions the validity of Victoria Police's extraordinary powers within designated areas, including stop and search powers and the ability to direct people to leave areas if they refuse to remove a face covering. While the 6-month declaration of Naarm's CBD as a designated area was ended early, organisers are concerned about the impact that ever-expanding police powers will have on fundamental protest rights, particularly those of First Nations people in the lead up to Invasion Day 2026. Register via Humanitix for the 2026 Naarm Invasion Day rally to receive updates with health and legal advice, and head to Dhadjowa Foundation if you can volunteer your time on Monday to assist organisers to collect donations to Pay the Rent.// Ilo Diaz from the Centre Against Racial Profiling joined us to continue the conversation about designated area declarations in Victoria. Following on from our chat on 18 December 2025, where Ilo spoke about some of the work he has been doing to document designated areas, today's interview focuses on the report 'A Tale of Two Cities: The Hidden Geography of Police Powers in Victoria', released this week by the Centre, which identifies the racialised impact of designated area policing via an analysis of declarations between 2019-2024. You can read 'A Tale of Two Cities' here.// Earlier this week, Alice caught up with writer, independent journalist and anti-fascist activist Tom Tanuki to discuss the Albanese Labor government's 'Combatting Antisemitism' laws, much of which have passed both Houses of Parliament early this week. Civil society organisations and legal advocates have raised alarm about the speed at which these laws have been rushed through Parliament, with consultation on the exposure draft of the Combatting Antisemitism, Hate and Extremism Bill 2026 announced on the 13th of January this year in the wake of the Bondi attack. You can watch Tom's video unpacking the hate speech laws here.// We played a speech by Dunghutti activist Paul Silva, nephew of David Dungay Jr., at a rally held last Sunday the 18th of January to commemorate 10 years since David Dungay Jr. passed away in the custody of New South Wales Corrective Services. This rally was met with a significant police presence, with attendees prevented from taking to the streets by NSW Police due to new powers to restrict public protests granted after the Bondi attack in December 2025. The upcoming Invasion Day rally in Sydney is anticipated to proceed without heightened policing due to a last-minute carve-out of the rally route from New South Wales' increasingly draconian protest laws. Paul Silva's speech was recorded by Iyngaranathan Selvaratnam.// Songs//We Have Survived - Bart Willoughby ft. Deline Briscoe and Friends

This housing week, Zeb and Kevin chat with Shane McGrath (Retirement Housing Worker at HAAG and 3CR Broadcaster on Raise the Roof) and later with Cathryn Murdoch (Defend and Extend Public Housing and PH tenant).  Shane discusses the closing of the John Curtin Hotel, the interim report of the Social Housing Regulation Review, the ongoing case for public over social housing from a financial perspective, the state government offloading homelessness services to the private sector, stories of radical direct housing action in the 70s, and the Barak Beacon housing estate in Port Melbourne currently facing "renewal". Cathryn joins us to discuss the grim reality that homelessness kills, and the memorial which was held with the crowdfunded and volunteer-run organisation From Us 2 U ("vote" for them to raise funds here). She also speaks to the issue of a severe lack of funding towards public housing by the Victorian Government while funds are diverted towards profitable prison systems and extremely predatory policing targeting vulnerable communities. The fundraiser for Paul Silva, David Dungay Jr's nephew, who is seeking justice and accountability for his family, can be found here. You can also attend the weekly vigils with Public Housing - Everybody's Business every Thursday from 12-1pm on the steps of Parliament House (Vic). 

David Dungay Jr's name has become a frequent rallying cry at Black Lives Matter protests across Australia. Now the family of the Dunghutti man, who died in custody in 2015, is teaming up with the barrister Geoffrey Robertson QC to take their case to the UN human rights commission, arguing Australia has breached its international human rights obligations. Indigenous affairs editor Lorena Allam explains the legal reasoning behind the case and what it could mean for the Dungay family and all families affected by a death in custody

It has been almost six years since Dunghutti man David Dungay Jr died at Sydney's Long Bay jail, but no-one has ever been charged over his death.

Peaceful protests calling for a change to the January 26 Australia Day holiday turned ugly as police clashed with protesters and, on one occasion, a protester was forcefully removed by bikies.Thousands gathered for Invasion Day protests in Australia's capital cities and in regional centres.After hours of speeches at the Domain in the Sydney CBD, where police told protesters they could gather but not march, a number of protesters were arrested.In Canberra, a man wearing a Make America Great Again cap and waving an Australian flag was forcibly removed from an Invasion Day rally by three men in bikie colours.As he drove away, the assembled crowd cheered.In Melbourne, thousands marched from Parliament House down Bourke Street after a peaceful protest in which police refused to remove their hats, a stance in line with police procedure.The clash between police and protesters at the Domain in Sydney followed a warning from police.“If you do the right thing, I'll do the right thing,” an officer told an organiser as 3000 people gathered.Among protesters there is Paul Silva, the nephew of David Dungay Jr, a Dunghutti man from Kempsey, who died in prison custody in 2015.“I'm here to demand the abolishment of Australia Day,” he told news.com.au.
