Frontier War Stories

Frontier War Stories is a podcast dedicated to truth-telling about a side of Australia that has been left out of the history books.

Each episode Boe will speak with different Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people about research, books and oral histories which document the first 140 years of conflict and resistance.

These times are the Frontier Wars and these are our War Stories.

HOSTED BY

Boe Spearim

WHY FIRST NATIONS FIRST?

At Awesome Black we don’t like to talk about the deficit that First Nations people have gone through, we don’t like to talk about the history of government failures and the effects they have had on our communities. We recognise that they have happened, but we want to talk about what we can do right now to get things moving forward for us, by us.

At Awesome Black we are attempting to create a system where wealth stays in our communities and we can build up Blakenomics, supporting each other’s businesses and community. At every point when we buy something we think… can we buy this from a First Nations person, if the answer is yes we do it, if the answer is no… we ask more questions. Why not? And how do we make sure that we can in the future?

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY
