Inside the troubled past of polarising politician Jacinta Price | Australian Story

A warning to our Indigenous viewers, this story contains images of people who've died. Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price is popular, polarising and outspoken - a rising star in Coalition ranks who helped steer the No campaign to victory in the Voice referendum. Within the Indigenous community, her critics feel betrayed by her controversial comments about colonisation and culture; her supporters say she's brave and bold. With the election imminent, questions are being asked about what it would mean should she become the next Minister for Indigenous Australians. In this episode, the former singer and children's television presenter responds to her critics and speaks for the first time about the deeply personal experiences that have shaped her political views.
