Today is Invasion Day, so we've dedicated a whole episode to cultural burns, a traditional land management practice that has recently received quite a lot of attention without much nuance. We look at the context, meaning, impact, and practices of cultural burning. Sovereignty was never ceded - this always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
