MODERATORS
 

The Woolworths Group is continuing with their plans to develop a Darwin Dan Murphy superstore in the vicinity of three dry Aboriginal communities, despite strong opposition from local community leaders and over 150,000 Australians protesting the development.

4ZZZ reporter Teagan Laszlo spoke with Olivia Williams, Founder of Blak Business and John Patterson, CEO of the Northern Territories Aboriginal Medical Services Alliance to discuss why they believe the proposed development is unethical, and the broader issues surrounding how corporations and governments interact with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
