This episode isn't comfortable. It doesn't intend to be. Today I open pages that many would like to close: dictatorships that crushed voices, crimes hidden under flags, silences that still scream. You will hear fragments of memory and analysis that are unsettling. Because to remember is to resist. Because forgetting is also violence. Australians don't much like to be reminded of it, but history must always be remembered, and we must confront our darkest past: being a penal colony.
