#148: Manterrupting, Indigenous place names, Four Seasons

It’s been a week for finding, and figuring out women’s place in power in 2020. An ABC 4 Corners expose on the power imbalance between men and women in Canberra has been seamlessly followed by a political press conference confirming the point. Meanwhile a statue erected to pay tribute to a feminist hero has many confused and outraged about the gaze it was sculpted in. Australia Post has backed a campaign to include Indigenous place names on letters and packages, which has us reflecting on the every day inclusion of traditional country names in all walks of life. And the Four Seasons Total Landscaping story is too good to ignore. Yes, we’ve ordered the commemorative tee.   Show notes: Four Seasons Total Landscaping: https://www.pedestrian.tv/entertainment/four-seasons-total-landscaping-merch/ Manterrupting: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-11-11/scott-morrison-anne-ruston-liberal-party-government/12873158 Why I Hate the Mary Wollstonecraft statue: https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/nov/10/why-i-hate-the-mary-wollstonecraft-statue Using traditional Indigenous names: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-11-11/australia-post-agrees-to-include-traditional-place-names-on-mail/12872484 This Place: https://iview.abc.net.au/show/this-place Blackfulla Bookclub: https://www.instagram.com/blackfulla_bookclub Pandora Sykes: https://www.penguin.com.au/books/how-do-we-know-were-doing-it-right-9781786332073 Email us: bangon.podcast@abc.net.au   Bang On is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation.
