Calling It Out

Q+A is back for 2021 in its new timeslot as host Hamish Macdonald moderates a debate on some of the current issues likely to shape the year ahead.

What now for Australia with a new Biden presidency? Will we feel the reverberations of lingering Trumpism here? How has the Australia Day debate impacted race relations and will the vaccine brawls erupting in Europe disrupt the Australian roll-out? Plus a chance to hear directly from our new Australian of the Year who's pledged to dismantle the system of grooming used by sexual predators.

The show will close with a live performance from didgeridoo player and musical director William Barton.

Guests:

Grace Tame, Australian of the Year

Alexander Downer, Former Liberal Foreign Affairs Minister

Warren Mundine, Chairman of the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation

Shane Fitzsimmons, Former NSW RFS Commissioner

Tanya Hosch, Social inclusion advocate
