Emily has passed the mic to Wiradjuri and Palawa journalist Isaac Muller for this special NAIDOC Week episode of News Time.

In this episode we’ll visit a patch of land being handed back to Traditional Owners, we’ll hear about some First Nations people nominated for some big awards, and we’ll learn some words in language for our Wow of the Week.
