Keiran Stewart-Assheton

Keiran Stewart-Assheton is our guest this week and he is the founder of the Black People's Union, a union that set out to represent First Nations tour guides, dancers and ceremonial performers, among others, filling the gaps of existing trade unions. It has grown into something even greater. Keiran's family are Yuin nation, around Nowra (NSW), but he has lived all over, starting out in Adelaide and then quite a bit of time in the ACT. Keiran was born in 1992, played 'all the sports' growing up, and was very successful academically. It was poignant to hear his reflections on the Left here in Naarm and you can catch more of Keiran on his show Yillam, Wednesdays 12pm to 1pm, here on 3CR. If you are in town this Sunday, Keiran encourages you to get down to Camp Sovereignty at 5am for a dawn service to honour those buried there. 3CR will have live coverage of the day, so tune in. We thank Keiran for joining us this week and we wish him well in all the areas of his life. Thank-you, Keiran.blackpeoplesunion.orgYillamin - Wednesdays 12pm to 1pm on 3CRKieran with Uncle Robbie Thorpe in the 3CR courtyard, 2024.
