Julie Browning, Manager, Society and Culture at the ABC, is mostly a radio person with the privilege of guiding the annual Boyer Lectures.
This year’s lectures come from Rachel Perkins, who will discuss the place of constitutional reform and reconciliation. It is a wonderful platform and a significant honour, a testament to an Indigenous filmmaker whose work is inseparable from her cultural struggle. Called ‘The End of Silence’, based on the Uluru-ku Tjukurpa or the Uluru Statement from the Heart they will start with a TV episode on ABC HD at 1.30pm. The three-part series starts on Radio National in the Big Ideas slot at 1.00pm on Saturday 16 November. It will arrive on the ABC podcast app.
