Human rights lawyer Vanessa Turnbull-Roberts brings her fight for justice for First Nations people and children to this powerful episode. Drawing from her own childhood trauma, forcibly removed at the tender age of ten and only began to heal when she fled the out-of-home care system to reconnect with kin and return to country. Her unflinching exposé uncovers the ongoing violence institutions are inflicting on children and their communities – from racist family policing and shameful rates of child removals to the steady pipeline of First Nations children into the criminal justice system.
