Reliving History: The Disaster at Barambah

Published: Nov. 9, 2020, 6 p.m.

Reliving History is a special series of Good Weekend Talks hosted by Kamilaroi journalist, Ella Archibald-Binge. Each episode will revisit key moments in Australian history through the eyes of First Nations people who lived them. In this episode we go back to 1919, when a small Aboriginal community was hit by the Spanish flu, a disaster unlike any they'd seen before. We hear from elders, historians and those who were there.
