Victoria’s history of violence

Content warning: some viewers may find this video distressing. It's time to talk about Victoria's history of violence. Watch Dr Bill Pascoe speak about the scale and impact of massacres perpetrated against First Peoples. We can’t change history but we can recognise it, learn from it and right the wrongs of the past. If we do that we can move forward together and build a better future for Victorians in this place we all call home.

Witnesses: Dr Bill Pascoe
