Host Mundanara Bayles is guided by Aboriginal Terms of Reference which is the accumulated knowledge that Aboriginal people developed over the tens of thousands of years of living in this land, now known as Australia.

Relationships are at the core of Aboriginal Culture and Society and in our whole history of living in this country we never invaded our neighbours.

An Aboriginal Terms of Reference introduction is based on “Who you are and not what you do”, this way of introduction has been practiced by Aboriginal people since the first sunrise. From an Aboriginal perspective this way of introduction reinforces our humaness, we are much more than our job titles.

In Episode 25 I yarn with Luke a proud Wiradjuri man with cultural and family ties to the Yuin People of NSW South Coast (Bermagui to Kiah), the Wotjoboluk People in Western Victoria (Dimboola/Horsham) and Gumbaynggirr Nation on the NSW mid-north coast (Nambucca Heads).

As a modern contemporary Aboriginal artist and mentor, Lore, culture and heritage are paramount to Luke whose life’s work has been focussed on building a foundation and work ethic in Aboriginal communities to grow and secure long-time careers in their chosen industries.
