Why conservatives are making the case for Indigenous reconciliation

250 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders met at Uluru in 2017 and hammered out what’s called the Uluru Statement, which outlines a path towards recognition of Indigenous Australians in the constitution. It was shot down by then Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

We’re joined by Liberal Senator Andrew Bragg, who has written a new book calling for a conservative re-think on reconciliation. We’re also joined by the Indigenous filmmaker Rachel Perkins, for her take on the slow progress of the debate.

The Liberal Party should be doing more to move this debate forward. It has historically been a party willing to embrace change…..why not change in relation to Indigenous Australians?
