In February 1965, a busload of university students led by Charles Perkins rolled through New South Wales towns exposing segregation and discrimination against Aboriginal people. Perkins, a pioneering Arrernte man who became the first Indigenous Australian to graduate from university, faced violence in Moree and Walgett. This episode follows the Freedom Ride's path, the confrontations at the Moree Baths and Walgett RSL, and the white backlash that met the riders. It also explores the legacy of the Freedom Ride as a catalyst for the 1967 referendum and the civil rights movement in Australia. Drawing on firsthand accounts and the student newspaper Honi Soit, we trace how a three-week bus trip became a turning point in the fight for equal rights. Lucas and Luna discuss the role of the Student Action for Aborigines, the violent responses in country towns, and how the ride galvanised national attention on race relations ahead of the 1967 referendum. #FreedomRide #CharlesPerkins #Arrernte #Moree #Walgett #1965 #AboriginalRights #CivilRights #AustraliaHistory #StudentActionForAborigines #Segregation #1967Referendum #NewSouthWales #HoniSoit #History #FexingoHistory #SocialJustice #IndigenousHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
