Episode 50 - Threads of Time (Griffith University)

For our 50th episode, journalism students from Griffith University look back…and forward. They take us back to events in 1975 to report on the enduring influence of The Dismissal and the land rights movement in Australia. And we trace the echoes of those stories through our 50 episodes to present day issues about food security and sustainable fashion. From old fabric to new futures, how the past is stitched into the present. Hosts: Mayabi Aziz and Princess BrownStories:'1975: The Ballads of the Whitlam Dismissal' - Reporter: Mayabi Aziz'What’s in a Name?' - Reporter: Nahri Forde'From thrift to thriving: the rise of op shops' - Reporter: Azzen Ramathan'Funky foods' - Reporter: Mayabi Aziz Production supervision:Sound design: Heather Anderson and Bridget BackhausEpisode Executive Producers: Bridget Backhaus and Heather AndersonSupervising Producer: Simon BradyMore stories from Griffith University:https://thesourcenews.com/ More stories from The Junctionhttps://junctionjournalism.com/Social media image:Urban pavement - pen_ashMusic:‘Betelgeuse’ / Kunal Shingade ‘Come Back Home’ / Olexy
