First up on the show we were joined by Rachana Rajan Associate Legal Director in the Human Rights Law Centre's First Nations Justice team, with an extended interview on the Crisafulli Government's shameful adult sentencing laws and the ways the Queensland Government will harm kids, families, and communities, particularly First nations communities. 

After that, we brought listeners an interview with Brett Collins from Justice Action who gave some important Updates on the Youth Justice Senate Inquiry. A few weeks ago, the Community Justice Coalition presented to the Youth Justice Senate Inquiry and is now building on that work. Justice Action discussed their report and the crucial importance of essential services in Prison such as External counselling and computers in cells for children and young people, to build important connections with family, education and the Arts.
