"He’s now been out of detention for four months, his longest stint outside prison since first entering the system eight years ago, at just 11 years old....

Voller's childhood was largely filled with solitary confinement, violence, and spit hoods. Overseas, media described his treatment inside youth detention as “like something out of Guantanamo Bay....
...But nothing like that justifies adult officers grabbing us kids by the necks, locking us in cells for long periods of time, and none of it justifies the behaviour that goes on in Don Dale from the staff, so I think it's just time that they all accept responsibility, because I think that’s the only way to, I guess, forgive the system and move on, is accepting what you’ve done is wrong...
...'Moving forward' is a phrase Dylan Voller uses a lot during the interview.

For the last four months he's been staying at BushMob, a residential rehabilitation centre for young people in Alice Springs.

His participation in the program was part of a court-order that saw him released from prison eight months early. At the time, the judge said Voller needed support to re-integrate back into society."

Today it was announced that Australian Unions will fight for a $45-per-week increase in the minimum wage. Wealth inequality is at a 70 year high and increasing the minimum wage is one of the most effective tools to improve equality.

||--Celebrating Arts & Culture by POC--||

Arts and culture are a huge part of society that we use to express ourselves, so in this episode we celebrate arts, music and culture produced by people of colour with guest hosts Obsa and Iman Hassan. Featuring interviews with Lisa Hilli, a PNG visual artist on her views of the art world being predominantly 'white', and Michelle Nguyen, a music producer. We also give our thoughts on Angela Davis's recent talk in Melbourne.
