    Indigenous Activism and Health Care Reform with Les Collins

    On the show today we chat with Les Collins who shares his journey from growing up in Cherbourg to being a member of the Brisbane chapter of the Black Panthers. And who, through his advocacy, helped shape the legal system, housing and health for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, nationally.   Mr Les Collins – Chair of the Board Aboriginal & Islander Health Training Advisory Committee (Kab-bai Committee) Les Collins is one of the pioneers to address Indigenous health inequalities in Queensland. He helped develop a number of community controlled Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander health services across Queensland. For 20 years, Les was the Queensland representative for the National Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation (formerly National Aboriginal & Islander Health Organisation) and was a member of the National Aboriginal Health Strategy Working Party which produced the National Aboriginal Health Strategy (NAHS) 1989. For many years the NAHS was the official policy and action framework for addressing Indigenous health throughout Australia which led to many improvements in services for Indigenous people. Among these initiatives was Australia’s first Indigenous Health Curriculum for General Practice which Les helped develop. Les was also heavily involved in establishing and managing a range of organisations that addressed the needs and aspirations of Indigenous communities in Queensland. Les is also an Advisor to the Institute for Urban indigenous Health and a singer-songwriter/entertainer who has put two of Oodgeroo Noonuccal’s poems to music and written a song about the 2008 Apology to the Stolen Generations which can be viewed on Youtube.   Watch 'Great Moments' by Les Collins: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RjXyQ3hnus

  3. Skate for a Voice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Children

    Skate for a Voice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Children

    ::TRIGGER WARNING:: - A very powerful edition of our podcast, but also needs to be listened to with care. It contains strong themes and discussion of violence. On the show today we have our first international guest, Melissa Skeet. A Diné (Navajo) woman, derby and trail skater and passionate advocate for missing and murdered Indigenous women and children. Besides our mutual love of skating, we talk about how both of our countries have incredibly high percentages of Indigenous women being murdered, experienced sexual and family violence and how the systems have failed them and sadly, how families were denied a voice. In 2021 in Australia there was a senate motion put forward for an enquiry launched by two Aboriginal senators, Dorinda Cox and Lidia Thorpe who are both family members of murdered Indigenous women. The senate report is due out in June this year. Bio: Melissa Skeet is an Ultra Trail Skater of the Dine’ Tribe from the Navajo Nation, raised at the Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona, U.S. and living in Montana, U.S. Melissa had her first taste of roller skating when she was invited by a roller derby athlete in Flagstaff, AZ who played for the High Altitude Roller Derby team to try out which she did and became a roller derby athlete for 4 in a half years. Melissa started Trail Skating when she skated alongside the beautiful Grand Tetons in Grand Tetons National Park, Wyoming, U.S. The beauty of trail skating started a passion for Melissa as she feels more connected with the earth and mother nature. Melissa started to become even more disturbed of the continuous epidemic of Indigenous People who had been taken and many were murdered. It wasn’t until she saw that the criminal justice system was continuously failing the victims and their families. Melissa then decided to take on one of the biggest challenges of her life of skating 300 miles across the Navajo Nation in Arizona, U.S. to raise awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Children, Elderly, 2-Spirit, Trans Relatives. Melissa completed 192 miles out of 300 miles with her amazing friend/Pacer Daisy Purdy and boyfriend Nate Zahn. Melissa realized during this skate that this was about bringing awareness to an epidemic that continues to be silenced and was set out to give a voice to all Indigenous families that we will keep fighting together. Melissa recently roller skated 40 miles in the rain for 8.5 hours in Washington, U.S. for Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, 2-Spirit, Trans Relatives (MMIWG2ST). This was a challenging skate due to the constant rain but nothing was going to stop Melissa. The skating awareness will continue for this month of May to continue to bring a Voice to the victims and their families who have been silenced. No more stolen sisters.
