Podcasts about year grace tame

As a child, Grace Tame often felt isolated and misunderstood, a feeling later explained by her autism diagnosis. It’s a common experience for autistic people, who have long been misrepresented, misdiagnosed and mistreated. The government aims to address this with Australia’s first National Autism Strategy, which it says will prioritise the voices and experiences of autistic people. While there's optimism, questions remain about whether the six-year plan will lead to real change. Today, former Australian of the Year Grace Tame on what the success of the strategy depends on, and what she hopes to see as an autistic person in a neurotypical world.

Jenny Morrison says she was a little bit disappointed with the behaviour of former Australian of the Year Grace Tame during an event at The Lodge last month - Συνέντευξη παραχώρησε το πρωθυπουργικό ζεύγος στο Κανάλι 9 η οποία μεταδόθηκε το βράδυ και προκάλεσε κάποιες αντιδράσεις. Απάντηση έδωσε σήμερα ο ομοσπονδιακός υπουργός Οικονομίας, Τζος Φράιντερμπεργκ στις πληροφορίες για ενδεχόμενη κατάργηση φοροελαφρύνσεων για τα χαμηλά και μεσαία εισοδήματα. Επιπλέον, ο Σκοτ Μόρρισον συνεχίζει να απολαμβάνει υψηλή σχετικά δημοφιλία, σύμφωνα με νέα δημοσκόπηση. 

Australia's First Lady Jenny Morrison has criticised former Australian of the Year Grace Tame, saying she was “disappointed” by the recent exchange the pair shared at The Lodge in Canberra.Ms Tame was among the guests welcomed to The Lodge for a morning tea on January 25, ahead of the Australian of the Year Awards in Canberra.Tame and her fiance Max Heerey were welcomed by Prime Minister Scott Morrison and Jenny, who both congratulated them on their recent engagement — but the pair didn't show the same warmth in return.The frosty exchange between the Morrison's and Ms Tame quickly went viral, and now — Mrs Morrison has opened up about the awkward moment for the first time.Speaking to Karl Stefanovic for an exclusive sit-down interview with 60 Minutes alongside her Prime Minister husband, Mrs Morrison quickly admitted she wished Tame had shown “manners and respect” and was “disappointed” by the whole exchange.“I just found it a little bit disappointing, because we were welcoming her in our home,” she said.“I just wish the focus had been on all the incredible people coming in. I respect people that want to change things, stand up for their beliefs, and are strong, but I still think there are manners and respect.”In the days follow the exchange at The Lodge in January, Tame explained her thoughts on the now viral moment.“The survival of abuse culture is dependent on submissive smiles and self-defeating surrenders,” she posted on Twitter.“It is dependent on hypocrisy. My past is only relevant to the extent that I have seen — in fact I have worn — the consequences of civility for the sake of civility.”Mr Morrison previously addressed the exchange, saying he always greets guests “with a smile” when anyone enters his home.“When Jenny and I invite someone to our home, we greet them with a smile and they're always welcome, and that day was actually about all the finalists we came to celebrate,” he said in the days after the ceremony.“I haven't raised any issues about (the incident) – all I'm saying is we were there that day to celebrate those who had done an incredible job for our country.”The 60 Minutes feature — dubbed “Meet the Morrisons” — touched on some of the other more contentious moments in his run as Prime Minister, as the country awaits the official date of the 2022 Federal Election.The interview with Stefanovic also covered his ill-fated trip to Hawaii, his highly-criticised comments that “as a father” he could emphasise with rape victim Brittany Higgins, and the strain of Mr Morrison's political career on his family, with his wife Jenny sharing insight into their relationship.In the interview, Mrs Morrison revealed she felt “sick to her stomach” when her husband was questioned by political journalist Peter van Onselen about leaked text messages labelling him a “horrible person” and a “complete psycho” during his National Press Club appearance earlier in February.Days later, it was revealed Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce had labelled Mr Morrison a “hypocrite” and a “liar”.“When I heard that question I actually felt sick to my stomach. I felt sick to my stomach because they were talking about someone that I really care about. And I just thought it was such a poor question with such bad intent, that those people just have no idea how it would affect my family” she said.“I have grown daughters that are going to high school … They know their dad, they know their dad better than anyone else.”n what can only be described as a comedic take from the sit-down, the Prime Minister showed off his ukulele skills while seated around the dinner table alongside his wife, two daughters Lily Morrison and Abbey Morrison and Stefanovic.The moment, which was heavily criticised on social media, had many questioning whether he learnt the musical talent while on holiday in Hawaii he took in 2019 at a time when...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's been one year since Brittany Higgins came forward with sexual assault allegations that shook the government. Last week she spoke at the National Press Club, alongside former Australian of the Year Grace Tame, about Scott Morrison's failure to lead on this issue.

On Tuesday Prime Minister Scott Morrison formally apologised to all those who have experienced sexual harassment, assault or bullying while working in federal parliament.  During his speech he directly addressed former Liberal staffer Brittany Higgins, whose advocacy initiated the review that led to Morrison's apology. The very next day, Brittany Higgins, alongside former Australian of the Year Grace Tame delivered an explosive address to the National Press Club - questioning just how seriously we should take the Prime Minister's words - and whether they will translate into action.  Today, contributing editor to The Monthly Rachel Withers on why Scott Morrison's apology might be too little, too late.  Guest: Contributing editor to The Monthly Rachel Withers.

When former Australian of the Year Grace Tame recently refused to smile in a photo opportunity with the Prime Minister Scott Morrison, people were outraged. Journalist Peter van Onselen wrote an article describing her behaviour as rude.

Amy talks about why we don't need to raise our girls to polite, and why we need to include boys in the conversation. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New Zealand is forced back into panic and despair as Jacinda hits the red light for Omicron. Record inflation is starting to do permanent damage in both Australia and NZ. Join Tim Wilms and Dieuwe de Boer. Not only has Jacinda Ardern put the whole of NZ back into red light restrictions but introduced a new phased change to testing and isolation protocols as the Omicron outbreak progresses. Speaker of the Parliament Trevor Mallard has continued to incite panic buying in NZ describing his weekly shop in a bare shelved supermarket. Jacinda's Omicron response has got the endorsement of her number one Australian fan Project co-host Lisa Wilkinson who describes Australia's Omicron response as a binfire. Australia Day 2022 saw Tennis player and disability advocate Dylan Alcott named Australian of the Year. He replaces outgoing Australian of the Year Grace Tame who pulled a sour face when she met Scott Morrison at an official function. The Federal Government said it had bought the copyright to the Aboriginal Flag from its creator Harold Thomas but Flagworld still has the exclusive manufacturing rights. Director-General of Public Health NZ Dr Ashley Bloomfield has denied the government is "requisitioning" RATs from private supplies but "consolidating" their own supplies. Scott Morrison has stated reports that the Federal Government has been requisitioning RATS are not true. The NSW and Victorian Governments have been engaged in what's been described as a military-style operation sending RATs to every school for the start of Term 1 next week. With many people obtaining natural immunity from recent infection booster uptake in Australia has been slow. Dan Andrews has stated he hopes the definition of fully vaccinated will change to three doses so he can mandate the booster. Victorian hospitals continue to operate under a code brown which is seeing elective surgery that could be performed still banned. Mainstream media websites have reset their vaccine bars to include the third dose rate. NSW has extended its mask mandate, QR codes, and singing and dancing ban for another month. WA's hard border continues with Mark McGowan this afternoon unveiling his own Omicron close contact and testing rules. Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk's government is involved in an integrity scandal with three of her anti-corruption and integrity officers State Archivist, Mike Summerell, Integrity Commissioner, Nikola Stepanov and CCC Chair Alan MacSporran all resigning. This new scrutiny stems from the fact that Palaszczuk wasn't investigated when she pulled a Hillary Clinton and used a private email server for official government business. In the sports report, Tennis Australia has backflipped on their ban on Where's Peng Shuai t-shirts. Members of Drew Pavlou's Democracy Alliance still plan to hand out 1000 of the t-shirts for the finals weekend. The atmosphere of the Australian Open has turned around after the Novak Djokovic deportation with Australian Ash Barty in the women's final and an all-Aussie men's doubles final. AFLW Muslim player Haneen Zreika won't play in the competition's LGBT Pride Round on religious grounds, an Instagram post said she respects and accepts everyone. She hasn't received the same hate that Christian Rugby player Israel Folau did. The Melbourne Victory A-League club has been fined $5000 for alleged homophobic abuse their fans directed at gay A-League player Josh Cavallo. Inflation in NZ is at a 30-year high of 5.9%.  Jacinda "absolutely refutes" that high government spending has led to high inflation.

Australia will be deep diving with nuclear-powered submarines as part of the new AUKUS Alliance. It does not include New Zealand with Jacinda Ardern banning the new subs from her waters. That plus further attacks on free speech and the latest lockdown news on Trad Tasman Talk with Tim and Stephen. Premier Dan Andrews announced some modest freedoms for Victorian for the weekend doubling the permitted time outdoors per day to 4 hours, expanding the travel radius to 10km, and allowing small picnics but alcohol will still not be allowed to be consumed. These freedom treat rewards were granted because 70% of eligible Victorians have received the first dose of a vaccine. New daily covid cases are continuing to rise in Victoria due to clusters at construction sites.  Dan Andrews has been too scared to shut the industry during lockdowns because of the power of CFMEU state Secretary John Setka. Construction workers today staged a smoko protest having their lunch break on the street to protest the closure of their tea rooms and that workers must receive one dose of the vaccine in a week's time. Auckland is now in its fifth week of its alert level 4 lockdown to crush the nation's Delta outbreak. New Zealand's alert level 4 sees even takeaway closed and the growing number of lockdown breaches included a man who left Auckland for a Maccas run. The lockdown has increased Jacinda Ardern's popularity while National Party Opposition Leader Judith Collins looks like she might face a challenge soon. A new AUKUS Alliance was announced by Scott Morrison, Joe Biden, and Boris Johnson as a second cold war is confirmed in the Pacific region as Communist China continues to flex its military muscle, influence, and interference in the region. Australia will also dump its $90 billion diesel-powered submarine contract with France in favor of superior nuclear power subs from the United States. Jacinda Ardern stated the nuclear subs will not be allowed in New Zealand waters, the nation is absent from the new alliance given its dependent relationship with Communist China. The High Court of Australia recently ruled that publishers of social media pages are liable for comments published under their posts, not the social media companies themselves. The Victorian Government plans to make it unlawful for religious schools to dismiss or not hire LGBT teachers and staff. Queensland has become the fifth state in Australia to legalize euthanasia. Last week the Morrison Government held a Women's Safety Summit which again gave oxygen to feminist activists who used to platform to criticize his government again. This feminist campaign has been led by Australian of the Year Grace Tame, who this week criticized the appointment of Lorriane Finlay as a Human Rights Commissioner for not supporting affirmative consent laws. Former Liberal staffer Britney Higgins has also joined Grace Tame in criticizing the Morrison Government's so-called inaction on women's issues.

As well as her interviews with politicians and experts, Politics with Michelle Grattan now includes “Word from The Hill”, where she discusses the news with members of The Conversation politics team. In this episode, politics + society editor Amanda Dunn and Michelle discuss the criticism Scott Morrison has already faced this week.  Firstly, his trip to Sydney to visit his family for Father's Day, which required a special exemption to return to Canberra, brought a sharp backlash when so many families couldn't reunite for the weekend. The PM didn't breach the rules – but did fail the pub test. Secondly, while his address to the National Summit on Women's Safety acknowledged that "Australia has a problem" when it comes to ensuring women feel safe, critics including Australian of the Year Grace Tame are scathing of his and his government's performance.

Our guest today is Australian of the Year Grace Tame, who advocates for survivors of sexual assault, and for clearer, consistent definitions in our criminal law. We talked to her about how to achieve change, and what still stands in the way. (This episode includes an excerpt from a much longer chat with Grace, which we've also published in our feed.)

Turning on the waterworks Scott Morrison turned on the waterworks. Begrudging shoutout to Ged Kearny for calling them crocodile tears.

Jane Hume, now the Minister for Women’s Economic Security loves brown coal. Liberal Party federal vice-president Teena McQueen says she would “kill to be sexually harassed at the moment”. Anthony Albanese: “Shuffling the deck won’t change the bad hand that the Morrison Government is dealing Australians.” Australian of the Year Grace Tame had a more coherent take.

Trigger warning: Before listening to this podcast, please be aware that it contains descriptions of childhood rape and sexual assault. In January of this year, an extraordinary young woman and sexual abuse survivor named Grace Tame was awarded Australian of the Year. And while there’s likely not a single person in Australia who now hasn’t heard her story, it wasn’t always this way. Yes, her story had already been told by many people - journalists, commentators and even the maths teacher who groomed and molested her when she was just 15 – yet Grace had never been able to publicly speak out and was known by the pseudonym Jane Doe. By law, she was silenced. The sexual-assault victim gag laws that existed in Tasmania, Victoria and the Northern Territory meant that Grace wasn’t allowed to tell her story – as the victim, she was prevented from ever speaking about her experience, even if she wanted to. Grace’s silenced sparked a fierce determination in her. She wanted to make real change. She wanted to give others the chance to speak up. Her case was the catalyst for the #letherspeak campaign which was created by journalist Nina Funnell. In 2019, Grace along with 16 other survivors of the #letherspeak campaign, succeeded in overturning Tasmania's archaic gag law. Their advocacy has resulted in 4 law changes across 3 jurisdictions. Grace was no longer silenced. She could speak. And so too, can other victims of sexual abuse. On International Women’s Day 2021, Grace took part in AllBright’s 24 hour global Step Forward Summit, sharing with AllBright her journey of standing up, fighting for what she believed it, and overcoming unthinkable trauma. In this conversation, we talk about: What it felt like for Grace not being able to control her own story – and what it felt like to finally be able to speak. Ways in which some ways perpetrators will try and silence their victims. Grace’s advice to young women and men out there who are being bullied for something that isn’t their fault. What it’s like battling with an eating disorder and how important it is to know you’re not alone. The momentous moment Grace won a marathon, 10 years after her abuse. Healing from trauma. What being awarded Australian of The Year 2021 means to Grace. About AllBright Australia Have you heard the news?

Australian of the Year Grace Tame joins Sam in this episode. In a wide ranging interview Grace opens up on the responsibility she feels toward other survivors of childhood sexual abuse, and describes how her abuser manipulated her into hating her own womanhood, and the ongoing effects of that.

Australian of the Year Grace Tame says the time for monumental change is upon us. She speaks to Life Matters about what she thinks needs to happen next. Award-winning author, Sarah Krasnostein discusses her new book 'The Believer'. And, what happens when you try your hand at farming with zero experience?

The events of the past week have us angry, frustrated, and exhausted. We sit with that, and with the knowledge that it's been happening for a long time. But also that this very public reckoning means things are different, the conversation is shifting. As our leaders offer statements that diminish the experiences of survivors, Australian of the Year Grace Tame's speech at the National Press Club is a hopeful and rallying call, and huge call out on how we discuss and deal with sexual abuse. In more joyful news, the permanent judge for Ru Paul's Drag Race Down Under has been ru-vealed, and Dolly has finally been vaccinated. Wait till you see the video. The Golden Globes went down this week too (!) and we unpack the most important elements: the fashion. And we're banging on about wonderful stuff to watch on the big and small screen, including Globe winner Nomadland.   Show notes: Laura Tingle's editorial on the historical rape case being dropped: https://twitter.com/abc730/status/1366677962418917377 How to Cope When Sexual Assault News Dominates the Headlines: https://www.sbs.com.au/news/the-feed/how-to-cope-when-sexual-assault-news-dominates-headlines And from ABC Everyday: https://www.abc.net.au/everyday/how-to-take-care-of-yourself-when-sexual-assault-makes-headlines/100010900 Teach Us Consent petition: https://www.teachusconsent.com/ Grace Tame speech at the NPC: https://iview.abc.net.au/video/NC2111C005S00 Rhys Nicholson on Ru-Paul's Drag Race: https://www.instagram.com/p/CL7XTj4D2Hk/ Dolly Vaccine Video: https://www.facebook.com/20470969754/videos/265839198410029 Golden Globes fashion: https://www.vogue.co.uk/fashion/gallery/best-dressed-golden-globes-2021 Nomadland: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sxCFZ8_d84&ab_channel=SearchlightPictures Abstract: The Art of Design: https://www.netflix.com/au/title/80057883 Email us: bangon.podcast@abc.net.au   Bang On is produced by Double J and is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation.
