Malka Lawrence speaks with Barbara and Norman Miller, co-founders of Indigenous Friends of Israel, an Australian advocacy organisation bringing an Indigenous perspective to supporting Israel and the Australian Jewish community through education, advocacy, and public engagement. Norman, who is of Indigenous heritage, and Barbara, who has decades of experience in Indigenous affairs including early work in land rights and reconciliation, have led solidarity initiatives, public advocacy, and programs aimed at combating antisemitism and fostering dialogue. In this conversation, we explore their journey, their work, and the challenges and opportunities in strengthening connections between Indigenous and Jewish communities in Israel and Australia.
