Election Insights: Yarning with Senator Dorinda Cox on the 48th Federal Australian Election
<p>With less than a week until the 48th Federal Election, I had the privilege of sitting down with Yamatji-Noongar woman and the first Indigenous woman to represent Western Australia in the Senate, Senator Dorinda Cox.</p> <p>This election feels like a turning point—First Nations justice, climate, housing, and international solidarity are all on the ballot. In this candid episode, I explore Dorinda Cox’s personal journey and unprecedented path into politics, unpacking the challenges and lessons she gained from her time as a police officer. We discuss critical issues facing our mobs, from the cost of living and affordable housing to the government's lack of action on First Nations sovereignty and truth. We also delve into global solidarity with Indigenous communities and Palestine, tackling important conversations on colonisation, structural change, and the Greens' grassroots approach to these pressing matters and their election promises!</p> <p>It’s important to note that I was not compensated for this taping, nor any other Yarning Up taping. Our team reached out to all Senators, including Senator Jana Stewart, Senator Malindiri McCarthy, and Senator Jacinta Price, but received no response, and in Senator Stewart’s case, a decline. It was our intention to ask the tough questions on behalf of our mob while maintaining political neutrality. We are grateful to Senator Cox for allowing us to do that.</p> <p><strong>To learn more about Senator Dorinda Cox click </strong><a href="https://greens.org.au/wa/person/dorinda-cox"><strong>HERE</strong></a><strong>. To learn more about what the Greens party is proposing in their election platform click </strong><a href="https://greens.org.au/platform"><strong>HERE.</strong></a></p> <p> </p> <p>If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a rating and review so we can elevate First Nations people and stories and don’t forget to follow the show!
