In episode 282, I discuss my journey of learning and discovery about our first nations people - and how as a non-indigenous Australian I can respectfully recognise and celebrate their cultures. I share my personal experiences, conversations I’ve had and useful resources I have found as I try to improve my understanding and empathy for the perspectives of our First Nations People. As Australia Day rolls around again and conversations about this topic fire up, these links and tools may help provide alternative perspectives, they may help you feel more confident to walk with our First Nations people in a movement of the Australian people for a better future.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
