 This episode of Doin' Time is a special broadcast dedicated to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and communities, particularly children and new mothers.

 First up on the show, Marisa speaks with Wergaia/Wamba Wamba Elder and Chair of the Yoorrok Justice Commission Aunty Eleanor Bourke, about the tabling of their second interim report, Yoorrook for Justice: Report into Victoria’s Child Protection and Criminal Justice Systems, examining historical and current systemic injustices as a direct result of colonisation in the settler state. She goes into detail about the process, the report's findings, and the Commission's recommendations for reform. 

 Later, Debbie Kilroy (Sisters Inside) joins the show to discuss Queensland's rushed new amendments to their watchhouse laws, allowing adult watchhouses to be used as youth detention centres for the next three years, categorically violating childrens rights and further exacerbating the human rights emergency in Queensland's already-broken youth justice system, disproportinately affecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
