Radio Reversal is a show that subjects aspects of everyday life to historico-political, theoretical, cheeky, irreverent, high brow, low brow, eye brow, warm-hearted analysis. Our aim is to see the world more clearly, think about what we'd like it to become, and how we can make that happen. We think that discussing these sorts of ideas is one way to lessen the alienation that affects many of us trying to make sense of a world that so often makes no sense of us. We also play loads of awesome music (sometimes thematic!) with great enthusiasm for requests and an emphasis on supporting local artists. It's fun!

Hi Zedforce! On today's show, Anna catches up with Sam Woripa Watson, a Wangerriburrah and Birri Gubba community activist and filmmaker, as he sails with the Global Sumud Flotilla to deliver food and medicine to Gaza. Anna chats with Sam about what sailing with the Flotilla involves, why they chose to participate, and what this Flotilla hopes to achieve.
“We see our collective liberation in Palestinian liberation, and theirs in ours. As First Nations people, we know what colonial violence looks like - land theft and erasure. Palestinians are facing that same violence now. Standing with Gaza is standing for justice everywhere. Let Palestinians live. Let aid flow. Cut ties with Israel.”
- Sam Woripa Watson
