S1E3: Yarraka Bayles - from 2SER to Radio Redfern and Radio Skid Row part 2 - Maureen Watson

  • Summary

  • There’s so much to say about the work of Yarraka Bayles’ family and the influence they have had. In this piece Yarraka talks about her grandmother, the broadcaster, poet, activist, artist and feminist Maureen Watson, who was on 2SER in the 1980s. She paved for not just Indigenous Women, but so many people in industry. Hearing again about way she was treated at times is really uncomfortable, but also an important reminder of the strength, vision and talent of this incredible person. What an amazing gift we had – and how sad that we didn’t better recognise this at the time. The images and stories here are shared with permission by the family.
