Q&A: June 8

Monday’s Q&A looks at a range of issues, including black deaths in custody in Australia.

It’s been a week of turmoil – our economy is in recession for the first time in 29 years, an historic reset for workplace relations is looming, and we’ve seen a massive about-face on robodebt. Also dominating headlines, protests are sweeping the streets of America and here too, with some describing it as a long overdue reckoning for Australia. For Indigenous Australians, the chaos in America has been a bitter reminder of the lack of attention given to our own shameful history of black deaths in custody.

Joining Hamish on the panel:

Andrew Bragg, Liberal Senator for NSW
Jim Chalmers, Shadow Treasurer
Nakkiah Lui, Actor, Writer and Gamillaroi and Torres Strait Islander woman
Nyadol Nyuon, Commercial Litigator with Arnold Bloch Leibler and Community Advocate
Meyne Wyatt, Wongutha-Yamatji man, raised in Kalgoorlie, Writer and Actor
