Today we announce the release of an iconic podcast series - “20 Years on the Inside”. The series gives voice to the experience of First Nations incarceration in the Victorian prison system. “20 Years on the Inside” is a carefully curated series of conversations with Aboriginal people recorded across two decades of Beyond the Bars, 3CR’s live prison radio broadcasts. The podcast series is hosted by prominent Aboriginal activists Vickie Roach and Kutcha Edwards. “We believe the voices in this series have never been heard in podcasting before, and the themes of storytelling, politics, community and humanity make this series a must-listen for anyone living in so-called Australia.” The 6-part series is available across all podcast platforms (Spotify, Apple) and on the 3CR website and you can listen live each Monday at midday on 855AM, 3CR Digital or via live streaming.

It’s 30 years since the Royal Commission released its final report into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody. Since then, the deaths have continued, and there’s still no justice. Legendary broadcaster Robbie Thorpe will host a live broadcast TODAY from the National Day of Action – Stop Aboriginal Deaths in Custody – Black Lives Matter rally from 1-2pm. We encourage listeners to attend on the steps of Parliament House, Melbourne, but if you can’t, tune in for live coverage. Listen live. 

Independent, community-owned media is unique, precious and a necessary element of a functioning community. Throughout February 2021 we’re asking you to be a 3CR Subscriber. Where else can you hear Palestinian viewpoints, anti-nuclear issues, union-run radio shows, anti-fascist analysis and the amazing raft of music view and voices present on 3CR? Become a member today. Artwork by Sam Wallman.
