Later this year we'll be voting in a referendum on the Voice, but how did it come about? In this bonus episode we go into the history of the Voice: the Uluru Statement from the Heart. The Uluru Statement originally called for an Aboriginal voice to parliament. It came from a convention bringing together over 250 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders at the foot of Uluru. We speak with Thomas Mayor who was one of the 250 signatories.  He's written a book, Finding the Heart of the Nation, on his 18-month journey taking the statement all across Australia.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Generations of inertia on the climate crisis, entrenched political partisanship and a public sphere defined by the volume of opinions rather than the willingness to listen means changing minds is a big ask. But from teachers to activists, artists and corporations, a huge effort has gone into trying to effect real change. What tools of persuasion, what methods of advocacy, what direct action is fair game when it comes to trying to get one's cause across? What does the collision between the individual and big institutions look like? And does ideology have any chance against the forces of capital? Host Matt Beard and panellists Thomas Mayor, Sara M. Saleh and Carl Rhodes (Woke Capitalism) discuss the challenges and ethical dilemmas of trying to make a difference. If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and follow our channel.

New Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has promised a referendum on the Uluru Statement from the Heart.  So what is it?  What will Australians be voting on? The Statement itself calls for an Aboriginal voice to parliament and a Makarrata Commission, a process of agreement making between governments and First Nations and truth-telling about their history.  It came from a convention bringing together over 250 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders at the foot of Uluru.   Thomas Mayor wasone of the 250 signatories.  He's written a book on his 18-month journey taking the statement all across Australia.  The book is Finding the Heart of the Nation.

Ella, an 11 year old girl spoke about the Lismore floods which have made her a refugee for the moment. James spoke of his frustration with government  and  called on us to overthrow it to get change. Thomas Mayor from MUA spoke about the Uluru statement from the heart being ignored and how now the future adults of this country are being ignored. As a Zenadeth Kes man from the Torres Strait he knows the  real effects of our continued inaction.It was an energetic and ardent meeting strongly connecting  the profits made from fossil fuels with the devastation caused to people. #People before profits.In Sydney's Daily Telegraph for 25th March The IPA's Dr Bella D'Abrera called the strike "Outrageous"....." The National curriculum not only tells children that it's wrong to question climate change but it  also wants to turn them into left wing activists"....... "It's a damning indictment of our education system that children genuinely believe that Australian Government policy will make a difference to the world's climate".We also briefly hear from the court case Juliana v United States featured in the film "Youth V Gov. Renknowned Environmental lawyer Gus Speth says " This huge failure to rise to the moment, I think it's the greatest dereliction of civic duty in the history of the republic". Take note Sussan Ley. As I send this programme to community radio 3cr and Skid Row, a second huge emergency has been declared in the Northern Rivers of NSW, Lismore region. Instead of our show on the latest IPCC report, we are broadcasting, with permission, a brilliant interview which really takes you there.Sue Higginson, former head of the EDO is also a Lismore local and farmer. She is deeply aware of the connections between this devastation and the ongoing permits for coal oil and gas which turbo charge it. She tells about the heroism of this community which has a strong tradition of looking after each other. Sue comments on the DUTY ofCARE court case brought by young people against the minister for the environment.  Now Sue is going to the NSW Parliament to transform the laws. It is one of the rawest and best informed interviews you will hear and we thank Giordano and the Juice Media team.

The notion of reconciliation has been discussed in Australian politics for forty years, but are we any closer to achieving a meaningful reconciliation with First Nations people in Australia? How can we possibly move forward if we don't reconcile with our past?

Van Badham and Ben Davison analyse the final day of Grace Tame's tenure as Australian of the Year, that handshake, that look, that photo, Morrison's failures on policy issues, Morrison entrenchment of unsafe cultural attitudes, the conservative response to Tame doing her duty and what it tells us about the state of politics and the status of women in Australia. Van and Ben also remind people they can get active to support better safety for women at work, and in society, through their union at australianunions.org.au/wow with the We Won't Wait campaign and the demands to implement all the recommendations of the Respect@Work report. COVID deaths in Australia are spiking with daily deaths per million currently higher in Australia than in Brazil. With Morrison prioritising making RAT importer millionaires over providing RATS to NDIS participants and aged care residents Van and Ben look at how people in those sectors are struggling as well as how the Ministers are, not only failing, but hiding out at the cricket! The union movement is holding webinars TOMORROW (Thursday 27th) on your workplace safety rights, hosted by Australian Unions leaders Sally McManus and Liam O'Brien, the webinars are a must for any worker who is concerned about COVID exposure at work, the shortage of RATS and what the rules are about not having to work in an unsafe environment.  The Australian Unions webpage and twitter has all the details. Dylan Alcott is the Australian of the Year for 2022! His first acts were to call for more support for the NDIS, free RATS, a shift in mindset and to take a very cheerful selfie with Grace Tame. Today is the Australia Day public holiday but the desire for a national day that all Australian's can celebrate is gaining momentum.  Van and Ben discuss some of the issues surrounding today, cameo some remarkable social shifts that commemorated Survival Day and suggest people check out Thomas Mayor's article on this topic in the SMH and Age. The good news is about the Yarra River! And we give shout outs to our Cadre and Extend the Reach supporters.  You can get a shout out by contributing at www.buymeacoffee.com/weekonwednesday 

In episode 282, I discuss my journey of learning and discovery about our first nations people - and how as a non-indigenous Australian I can respectfully recognise and celebrate their cultures.

Thomas Mayor is a Torres Strait Islander, a wharfie and National Indigenous Officer for the Maritime Union of Australia. He has tirelessly advocated for the proposals in the Uluru Statement, and is the author of two best-selling books. The first book, ‘Finding the Heart of the Nation – the journey of the Uluru Statement towards Voice, Treaty and Truth', tells his story, the story of the Uluru Statement and the remarkable people that he met on his campaigning journey. A children's version of the book, ‘Finding our Heart', was published in June 2020. His latest book has just been released - Dear Son – letters and reflections from First Nations fathers ands sons. This beautifully designed anthology comes at a time when First Nations peoples are starting to break free of derogatory stereotypes and find solace in their communities and cultures. Yet, each contributor - which includes Troy Cassar-Daley, Stan Grant, and Charlie King - also has one thing in common: they all have a relative who has been terribly wronged – enslaved, raped and dispossessed – because of their Aboriginality.  A story-teller at heart, a campaigning communicator. This is your invitation to listen to these stories and many many more with the guiding light that is Thomas Mayor.

This week's edition of the Moorditj Mag Podcast sees Jim and Nick talking to author Thomas Mayor about his new book [Dear Son](https://www.hardiegrant.com/au/publishing/bookfinder/book/dear-son-by-thomas-mayor/9781741177565), which features letters from First Nations people on topics of love, masculinity, racism and more.

What is the Uluru Statement and why should we care? For this week's online conversation, we will be joined by Zenadth Kes man, Thomas Mayor. Thomas became a campaigner and signatory to the Uluru Statement from the Heart. In this podcast, we hear about his journey to bring together First Nations voices across the continent for the Uluru Statement from the Heart.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are the First Nations who have lived on the continent we now call Australia for up to 75 thousand years. In 2017, Indigenous people from all over Australia met at Uluru for a special meeting and wrote the Uluru Statement from the Heart. It’s a call for all Australians to embrace our First Nations people and finally listen to their call to be heard, and for their human rights to be respected. Thomas Mayor is a Torres Strait Islander man who carried the statement to First Nations communities around Australia. Now he’s written a book for children about this journey, it’s called Finding Our Heart. Producer Cinnamon Nippard spoke to him about the Statement, how it came into being and what it would mean for the Statement to be enshrined in our constitution.

Thomas Mayor is a Torres Strait Islander man born on Larrakia country in Darwin. He was first a wharf labourer, then union official for the Maritime Union of Australia, and most recently, an author and tireless campaigner for the Uluru Statement of the Heart. We talk to Thomas about how his concept of masculinity has changed over the years, and what it's like to be a Torres Strait Islander man in Australia in 2020. This is a powerful episode which traverses topics such as racism, intimacy, mental health and empathy. 

The Uluru Statement, created in 2017, is a rallying cry to enshrine First Nations’ voices in the Australian Constitution. Torres Strait Islander writer Thomas Mayor spent 18 months travelling across the country to garner support for the Statement—now, with Finding the Heart of the Nation, Mayor brings that journey to all Australians. Mayor is joined by academic Megan Davis and lawyer Teela Reid to discuss what Black Lives Matter should mean in a land wrought by colonisation and in which First Nations’ sovereignty was never ceded, and the vital importance of the Uluru Statement in the fight for Indigenous rights.

Three years ago, Indigenous Australia gifted the nation with their vision for the future – The Uluru Statement from the Heart. After being rebuffed by then Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, is there still hope for a referendum on meaningful constitutional recognition?

Some years ago, while living in Broken Hill, I was privileged to work closely with the local aboriginal community. It was through this work that I learned the very real and tangible power of storytelling to bridge gaps and help foster positive change. As a non-aboriginal Australian, this experience helped motivate my desire to understand my Australian story in a way that connects to, acknowledges past hurts and celebrates the incredible stories of our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tribes.Thomas Mayor is the National Indigenous Officer at the Maritime Union of Australia, and a passionate advocate of the Uluru Statement and the three reforms contained within it. In fact, the Statement is an invitation to all Australians - to "walk with us" and support the proposed reforms to create a better future for the entire Australian nation. If you believe that the First Nations deserve to have a voice, this interview with Thomas will help you understand how to show your support.In episode 194 of Be The Drop, recorded LIVE at Adelaide Writers' Week, Thomas recites the entire Uluru Statement - which he knows by heart. He explains the journey to create his book, Finding the Heart of the Nation, shares some helpful resources and extends an invitation to join the movement.----Are you considering starting a podcast?

The Uluru Statement from the Heart was the culmination of a series of Indigenous dialogues across Australia, a painstakingly crafted response to the question of constitutional recognition. It rejected symbolism in favour of a representative voice to parliament, and a process of truth-telling and treaty. In this episode, we catch up with Thomas Mayor who has been bringing the Uluru Statement to different communities. He is a Torres Strait Islander and the Northern Territory branch secretary of Maritime Union Australia.
