Amy speaks with author and Harvard Review editor Christina Thompson about her book, Sea People: The Puzzle of Polynesia, which explores the quest to understand who first settled the islands of the remote Pacific, where they came from, and how they got there. Associate Professor Gemma Carey, Research Director of the Centre for Social Impact at UNSW, discusses how the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic is affecting people with a disability and/or chronic illness, and what support the government and the NDIS need to provide so people with a disability and their carers are not left behind and put at increased health risks. Plus, Ben Eltham from New Matilda on federal politics, including the latest on public health measures, social security support announcements, and what the next coronavirus economic stimulus package means for you.
