What can you do to confront racism‪?‬ How Can I Help?

    • Society & Culture

In this episode of How Can I Help? we look at the ways we can engage with the issue of racism in Australia. That includes calling it out when you see it, but also doing work on yourself.
We speak with Neha Madhok, national director of Democracy in Colour, and Dominic Guerrera, a Ngarrindjeri person who works as an Aboriginal health educator and student support officer, and is also a poet, podcaster and writer.
