On this Radioactive Show we hear from the Leonora Public Meeting held on Wongatha country, that was held after this years Walkatjurra Walkabout in the Goldfields of Western Australia. The public meeting was held on Saturday 1st September in Leonora, Goldfields, Western Australia.  It shed light on WA's nuclear free campaign and the proposed Yeelirrie and Wiluna uranium mines and the radioactive waste dump.   The public meeting gave a voice to affected communities and an opporunity for the public to ask questions on each of the proposals. Kado Muir, leader of the Nalia tribe and an applicant on the Mantjintjarra Nalia peoples native title claim from Leonora was a brilliant MC, and speakers included Vicky Abdullah (Tjiwarl), Delsan Stokes (Wongatha elder), Senator Rachel Siewert (Australian Greens), Piers Verstegen, Director Conservation Council of WA (CCWA) and Robin Chapple (WA Greens).   I’d like to acknowledge and give a massive thanks to Tjulma Pulka Aboriginal Radio Station, to Debbie and Libby Carmody who recorded this important meeting and gave me permission to use.
