Podcasts about deathscapes

This interview of Suvendrini Perera and Joseph Pugliese is meant as a complement to the conversation with Jan Turner in our 44th issue (Nov-Dec 2022), The Desert. Entitled "The Impact of a Life (and a Death): Colonial Encounters and Aboriginal Desert Practices," this conversation revolves around the life and death of Aboriginal leader and artist Mr. Ward, whose death was investigated by the project founded by Suvendrini and Joseph: Deathscapes. Together we discuss the various methodologies they use in this project that documents Indigenous and migrant deaths in detention by settler states (in particular Australia), as well as the crucial need to practice these investigations in the utmost respect of the grief of those who lost a relative or a community member.

Raul also spoke about Gail Hickey, TJ's mother, and her overwhelming grief and frustration that a proper investigation has been refused for TJ's death, despite taking things to the United Nations. Marisa also interviewed Professor Bronwyn Carlson, from the Department of Indigenous Studies at Macquarie University, about police investigating police, deaths in custody and the Deathscapes website, which documents deaths in custody, . Then Marisa heard from Cheryl Kaulfuss, representing ISJA Melbourne, who conveyed a heartfelt message of solidarity support to the family of TJ Hickey, and talked about the ongoing persecution of police who in every way block the family from investigating TJ's death. Cheryl spoke about how over the years, in the words of Warrior Ray Jackson who has since passed away but was a staunch supporter of the Hickey family, "Redfern Police continue to refuse to allow the installation of the Commemorative Plaque to be installed at the fenceline where TJ was impaled as a result of his bicycle being rammed by a police vehicle. The police want to see this as an accident. That will never happen". Cheryl spoke about police investigating police and how important and powerful the Redfern rallies are that happen every year on TJ's death. We note that it is uncertain whether the Plaque has even been installled yet.

Deaths in controversial and contested circumstances include deaths in custody, immigration detention, health care, at borders and following disasters. In Australia and internationally it is evident that institutional responses to contested deaths are inadequate and fail to address families’ and communities’ demands for transparency, public scrutiny and accountability. The Guardian’s Deaths Inside database and the website Deathscapes are excellent digital initiatives dedicated to raising awareness. Our panel reflect on these important initiatives and discuss how activism and advocacy can increase transparency and obtain justice.
