3CR has a long history of supporting the Palestinian struggle and over the decades we have given airtime to the Palestinian community to have a voice across the airwaves. Every Saturday morning at 9.30am you can listen to Palestine Remembered live or online and get informed and keep up to date with the current situation. You can also catch up with podcasts via your favourite podcast platform, or audio on demand. 

On Saturday 7 October, from 1-2pm 3CR will be coming to you live from the ‘Stop Black Deaths in Custody National Day of Action(link is external)’ at the State Library of Victoria.  The rally is calling for an immediate implementation of the recommendations of the 1991 Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody(link is external).  If you can’t be there in person listen in to the rally speeches on 3CR Community Radio!  Listen in on 855AM, Digital 3CR, streaming on www.3cr.org.au or on the Community Radio App(link is external).  Listen back here.

It’s great for listening live while you’re out and about. So, show the love, and share the love, and search Community Radio Plus, wherever you get your apps.

Last week the Beyond the Bars program teams broadcast live from six Victorian prisons. We shared the mic with First Nations women and men across the state for NAIDOC Week 2023. You can now listen back to all the broadcasts and hear the insights direct from First Nations people in the system. We look forward to a day when we don't need to go into prisons to give First Nations people a voice.
