In 1908, a South Australian royal commission set out to investigate the treatment of Aboriginal people in the Northern Territory. The Moseley Royal Commission, led by Judge W.J. Moseley, heard testimony from across the Territory — from Darwin to Alice Springs — and its findings painted a brutal picture of frontier violence, exploitation, and neglect. This episode follows the commission's journey, the witnesses who testified, and the tangled politics that buried its recommendations. We look at the role of the federal government, the White Australia policy, and the legacy of a report that remains largely forgotten. Key figures include W.J. Moseley, Herbert Basedow, and the pastoralists and police who shaped the frontier. We also touch on the early debates about a national Aboriginal policy, years before the 1930s assimilation push. It's a story about how a government can look at injustice and still choose to look away. #MoseleyCommission #RoyalCommission #NorthernTerritory #AboriginalHistory #FrontierViolence #WhiteAustraliaPolicy #HerbertBasedow #WJMoseley #Australia1908 #ColonialJustice #History #FexingoHistory #SouthAustralia #Darwin #AliceSprings #AboriginalProtection #Assimilation #ForcedLabour Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
