When opposition leader Peter Dutton proposed nuclear energy reactors on almost every mainland state in June last year, he reignited divisive public debate.
It’s a debate Indigenous Australians are unwillingly at the heart of. A story that starts in the 1950s, when radioactive fallout from bomb tests caused illness among Aboriginal communities that were not adequately protected by the government of the day.
Today, audio producer Julia Carr-Catzel brings us a special edition of The Morning Edition on the resistance in Aboriginal communities to a potential nuclear energy industry in Australia.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander listeners are advised that this podcast contains names of people who have died.

Hi there, I’m Jacqueline Maley, the host of Inside Politics, The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald’s weekly politics podcast.
We’re bringing you the best episodes of 2024, before we return in early February for the election year.
Last year was a big one for the Greens, often called the third party of Australian politics.
They took what was seen as a hardline stance backing Palestinians in the war with Israel, owned the issue of affordable housing, and controversially came to the defence of the CFMEU in the wake of revelations the union had been infiltrated by criminals.
National affairs editor James Massola and federal political correspondent Paul Sakkal bring you this episode today, on January 10.

They’re on opposite sides of one of the world’s most violent political conflicts, representing groups who often express extreme animosity towards each other. One refers to them as the occupied and the occupier.
But what do the Israeli and Palestinian representatives in Australia make of each other? Especially now, when relations between Israel and Australia are if not at an all-time low, then pretty close to it?
Today, foreign affairs and national security correspondent Matthew Knott, on why both men - famously reluctant interviewees - granted him an interview at the same time. And what, 15 months into the war in Gaza, they wish Australians knew.

In what has to be one of the more stunning political reversals of fortune, Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau has resigned.

Today, digital foreign editor Chris Zappone on the downfall of Justin Trudeau, after nearly a decade in power. And how a new Canadian prime minister might impact the rest of us.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/

We’ve been living through a housing crisis for so long, that sometimes it feels as though it’s been with us forever. But when did it actually start? And what would it take to make the dream to own your own home once again within reach? For the first time, thanks to newly unlocked cabinet papers from 2004, we now know more about what role former Prime Minister John Howard and his treasurer, Peter Costello, played, in arguably contributing to house prices that have, well, gone insane.
Today, senior economics correspondent Shane Wright, on the warning that Howard and Costello were given, but decided not to present to their own cabinet. And what voters should know, ahead of the next federal election.

You’ve seen all the headlines. And squinted at the figures. But for god’s sake, what do they actually mean? We are, of course, talking about Peter Dutton’s nuclear energy plan.

Today, climate and energy correspondent Mike Foley on how the Opposition’s plan compares with the government’s energy strategy. And the straight facts that will help you sound like you know what you’re talking about, at your next dinner party.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/
