Police are everywhere in Alice Springs. You see them driving pursuit vehicles and caged vans on the streets, or stationed outside the bottle shop checking IDs. But more police doesn't mean less crime – it just means more people are getting locked up. As Alice Springs reels from the police shooting of Warlpiri teenager Kumanjayi Walker, and in the wake of an apology from the Northern Territory Police Commissioner Michael Murphy for systemic racism, Daniel James wants to find out whether it's possible to mend the broken relationship between the coppers and the Indigenous community. In the second episode of our three part series, Daniel visits the police headquarters to meet the Arrernte woman tasked with one of the most challenging jobs in Alice Springs – to fix the culture inside the police force.  Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram

This interview occurs in the wake of a decision made at the directions hearing into the death in custody of Yamatji, Noongar, Wongi and Pitjantjatjara woman Heather Calgaret's in Sunshine Hospital in November 2021 while she was incarcerated at Dame Phyllis Frost Centre. The directions hearing established that Victoria's parole system will be under scrutiny as part of the coronial inquest into Ms Calgaret's death, which will commence on April 29, 2024.

As of yesterday, there have been widespread calls within the Victorian and New South Wales Muslim communities to boycott both Labor Party Premiers' Ramadan events, and prominent organisations including the Australian National Imams Council and Islamic Council of Victoria have both publicly declined to attend.//  Monica - ASU4Palestine Monica is a unionist and member of ASU4Palestine and has worked in community and social services coming up to 10 years.

There's a fine line between race and racism when dissecting the Australian mainstream media and its reportage of Indigenous Affairs.Over the last decade, conservative columnists and reporters in conservative legacy media have generated public debate over the validity of the Racial Discrimination Act. At the same time, Indigenous communities have accused the same media of covert and overt racism in reporting. TV presenter, journalist, and Whadjuk Noongar woman Narelda Jacobs explores coverage of the death in custody of Kumanjayi Walker and the resulting trial. While Professor Heidi Norman from UTS discusses the coverage of the Cindy Prior case, which became subject to a nationwide debate around racial discrimination.Warning: The following episode discusses the reportage of Aboriginal Deaths in Custody so if this is likely to raise anything for you, please give 13 YARN (13- 92-76), the national 24/7 Indigenous crisis line a call.Blak Bias is a collaboration between IndigenousX.com.au, the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), and 2SER Radio.
