Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse as he features 3CR 855 Community Radio in Melbourne, Australia. Last month, Tiokasin was on special assignment in Australia and had the great honor of meeting and spending time with Radio Hosts and longtime Australian Indigenous activists Robert Thorpe Robbie Thorpe and Vivian Malo Viv Malo and other station staff of 3CR. Tiokasin was invited to appear on two of Robbie’s popular weekly radio shows. The interview that we will hear today is from Robbie’s show, Tiokasin was interviewed on "Fire First" hosted by Robbie Thorpe on 3CR 855 AM Community Radio in Melbourne, Australia. The show's theme: "A historically informed, critical analysis of Aboriginal affairs and the ongoing political movement for land rights, treaty, sovereignty and the cessation of genocide."

Outspoken and independent, the station still gives voice to issues that would otherwise go unheard, and to people striving for political and social justice.
