“War of Two Worlds” about similarity between indigenous struggles in Chile, West Papua and Australia.
The show includes an interview with Danny (from West Papua) who tells of his amazing escape from death at the hands of the Indonesian military. Danny was an eyewitness of the Biak massacre in 1998 and one of 43 West Papuan asylum seekers, and gives his account of a dramatic canoe journey seeking asylum in Australia in 2006.
The show has many other voices as well: Marcella (Chile Solidarity), Lili (Chaired a rally in solidarity with Mapuche people of Chile) , Pablo (Mapuche), Kristy Lee (WAR & founder of ‘people of the 3%’ not sure of the title?) Sam Watson (Socialist Alternative) and Robert Wharton an aboriginal artist who died just a few weeks ago.
