Living Black host, Karla Grant, said: “At Living Black, we remain committed to sharing the stories of our people. We continue to give Indigenous peoples a voice across the country, and this year we're also going global – interviewing international talent about the issues that matter to them.
“I’m looking forward to a new season which features timely investigations and interviews with inspiring people.”
