Episode 159 - Pemulwuy, the First Nations Freedom Fighter (c.1750-1802)

When Europeans first set foot in Botany Bay, the local populations found their homes, their foods ounces and their lives under immediate threat. Some sought to negotiate; some fled. Still others stood their ground, and became a thorn in the side of the British Empire. This is one such story.

Join Holly and Matthew as they examine the scant and biased histories of the era, and seek out the truth on a 210-year vendetta.
