Blackchat on Thursdays
Broadcaster: Paulette Whitton
News and Current Affairs program with your host, 2006 Deadlys Broadcaster of the Year & recipient of the 2008 CBAA Contribution to Indigenous Broadcasting award, Paulette Whitton. 
 
Blackchat is also co-produced by UTS Journalism student & Volunteer, Brooke Boney.

Hi all,

Each Thursday on the Blackchat program we talk about matters relating to Law.

On Thursday 2 September 2010...... 
 
Aboriginal Legal Services around the country have joined forces to deliver a message to the Independents who are deciding which party they will support to form Australia's next Government. We find out what it is.
 
Plus more!
 
Don't forget, Blackchat is now heard all over the country courtesy of the National Indigenous Radio Service (NIRS).
 
The second hour of the show is broadcast live weekdays and is the latest Koori Radio program to join the NIRS broadcast schedule. Others include the Sweet Science & Indigenous Hip Hop Show.
 
So tell your family & friends around the country to tune into their local Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander radio station to catch a slice of Blackchat!
 
Sydneysiders can tune in from 9am to 12noon for the full show, on your local Aboriginal community radio station, Koori Radio 93.7FM.
 
If you have a story or event happening in your community, don't forget to tell us about it! Send an email to blackchat@gadigal.org.au  or call us on (02) 9384 4013 or (02) 9384 4000. 
 
Stay strong, stay deadly and stay beautiful!
 
Cheers,
 
Paulette
