Irene Watson is a Tanganekald and Meintangk woman from the Coorong region and the south east of South Australia, and one of the first Aboriginal people to graduate with a law degree. She has a long history in examining the legacy of colonialism, and the enduring doctrine of terra nullius in this country. She joined Amy McQuire to discuss the current political environment, and her thoughts on constitutional reform and treaty. Prof Watson also discusses the problem with native title, and why we have to start revitalising our connection to country, because there is no future in the Western idea of ‘progress’.
