*Content Warning: This episode of Doin' Time contains audio images and descriptions of Aboriginal and Torres-Strait Islander people who have died, in-depth discussion of Aboriginal Deaths in Custody, and other distressing content such as suicide in detention. First up on the program, Marisa invites proud Gunditjmara woman Jill Gallagher, CEO of the Victorian Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (VACCHO), on the program for the very first time to talk about her work, particularly in the decriminalisation of public intoxication, where Victoria's draconian laws continue to create an unsafe environment for all, and disproportinately impact Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. She discusses the 2017 death in custody of much-loved Yorta Yorta mother Tanya Day, and also her work over the past two years reviewing the culture of correctional services. Next, Marisa is joined by Nerita Waight, CEO of the Victorian Aboriginal Legal Service (VALS), who provides a comprehensive summary of the findings of Coronial Inquest of the death in custody of Veronica Nelson, which were handed down last Monday, 30 January 2023. Finally, Marisa interviews Ian Rintoul from the Refugee Action Coalition, who calls for a full investigation on the suspected suicide of the young detainee found hanging in Villawood Detention Centre, the fourth or fifth since 2019 at this centre alone. He also gives an update on the campaign to free asylum seekers and refugees from detention, and why we need to act immediately to stop human rights abuses towards non-citizens, particularly in regards to Section 501 of the Australian Migration Act.
In Sydney of 1960, a man sings acappella to workers on a building site. In Sydney of 2020, a woman sings acappella to TV cameras. In Sydney of 2022, a man wheels his kayak through a drain under a highway. This week we're looking at one of the greatest songs of the 20th century, "Ol' Man River", as sung by Frank Sinatra in TILL THE CLOUDS ROLL BY (1946). Racially, socially and environmentally, this masterpiece of songwriting has meant many different things to different people at different times. But one thing is for certain: it has no possible conservative reading. In the first half of this episode we also dig into other songs from the Jerome Kern songbook as featured in the film. Note: This episode features a discussion of Indigenous deaths in custody - in particular, that of Tanya Day. September 8th is Wear Pink for Tanya Day, as organised by her family.

In 2017, 55-year-old Yorta Yorta woman Tanya Day suffered a devastating fall in a police cell. Shortly before Christmas, she passed away in a Melbourne hospital.

Calla Wahlquist explores the coronial inquest into the death and her family’s campaign for justice
Aunty Tanya Day was a 55 year old Yorta Yorta woman who died while in police custody after being arrested for public intoxication while on a train. Tanya was drunk and asleep on a VLine train headed to Melbourne when a ticket inspector decided she was unruly and called the police. Tanya was taken to Castlemaine Police Station, where she was left in a cell and check on for a total of less than thirty seconds in the four hours she was held there. Tanya sustained a serious head injury that caused a cerebral bleed and her eventual death. #JusticeForTanyaDayEPISODE NOTES:If the recommendations put forth thirty years earlier during the Royal Commission, and thirty years after Tanya’s own uncle Harrison Day died in similar circumstances while in police custody, Tanya Day would still be alive right now. Thirty years after the Commissioner recommended that the “crime” of public intoxication be removed from the Criminal Code, yet another Aboriginal woman died in custody, with her only crime having a drunken kip on the train.You can read more about the case and view the CCTV footage of Tanya here, but please be warned, it’s not an easy watch https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-09-06/cctv-footage-of-tanya-day-released-by-coroner/11471018You can read the finding from the Coroner’s Court here https://www.coronerscourt.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/2020-04/Finding%20-%20Tanya%20Day-%20COR%202017%206424%20-%20AMENDED%2017042020.pdfThe Department of Public Prosecutions decided not to proceed with a criminal case.

We briefly are reminded of the Justice for Tanya Day campaign (petition). We then hear from four gender non-conforming and women panellists: Jane Green (sex worker rights activist with Vixen collective), Miriam Khalil (contemporary artist), Tarneen Onus-Williams (writer and organiser for Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance) and Laura McClean (union organiser and queer anti-fascist), at a discussion on reclaiming LGBTIQ+ pride, from corporations, cops, whiteness, returning pride to its radical roots. The panel was held on May 17, International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism & Transphobia by Feminist Insurgency. Speakers underline how LGBTIQ+ liberation is connected with other struggles including against racism and colonialism.
It's been 28 years since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. In Victoria, over 80 Aboriginal, health, human rights, housing, legal and women’s organisations are calling on Premier Andrews to abolish the offense of public drunkenness – a key recommendation of the Royal Commission. This petition was sparked by the December 2017 death in custody of Aboriginal mother, grandmother and beloved community member, Tanya Day. In this episode we speak with AprylWatson , a proud Yorta Yorta, Wemba Wemba, Barapa Barapa woman from Echuca and one of Tanya Day's four children. We also speak with Shahleena Musk, a proud Larrakia woman from Darwin in the Northern Territory, she is a lawyer at the Human Rights Law Centre.
