Context (taken from 89.9 THE LIGHT FM website)
On Saturday, 14 October 2023, Australians will have their say in a referendum about whether to change the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing a body called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice.
In light of this, radio presenter Clayton (C) invited two Christian Aboriginal leaders to share their views on the referendum. He spoke to Safina Stewart (SS), a Melbourne based Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander who is the Relationships and Storytelling Coordinator for Common Grace, who explained her reasons for voting yes.
