Ni! means listen

About Ni! means listen

In this podcast series we explore the lives and experiences of Noongar Elders living in Boorloo (Perth). Hosted by Noongar performer and story teller, Phil Walleystack, their stories reveal powerful and at times heartbreaking accounts of what it was like growing up Aboriginal in Australia, treated like outsiders and second class citizens on their own land. Listen to our Elders as they share another layer of history – one that has always been there, just kept in the shadows. Ni! means listen was produced by Community Arts Network in partnership with the City of Perth and with support from the ABC. Presenter: Phil Walleystack Producer: Michelle White Editor: Jemma King Recorded at ABC Studios Perth Theme music: Strong by Phil Walleystack
