Ken Peters Dodd plays didgeridoo at a Whale Ceremony

Hear the insights of Ken Peters Dodd,  a sovereign  Birriah man whose  ancestors were  forced from their land west of Bowen in Queensland.  Now he has returned with his family to live on Birri country, perform ceremony  and defend it from the proposed Urannah dam,  from Adanis plans and from climate change.  Giyou Peters Dodd  gives a clear call for us all to clean up the planet.  Senator  Larissa Waters asks for a stronger indigenous voice and to clean up politics.
