Radio Reversal is a show that subjects aspects of everyday life to historico-political, theoretical, cheeky, irreverent, high brow, low brow, eye brow, warm-hearted analysis. Our aim is to see the world more clearly, think about what we'd like it to become, and how we can make that happen. We think that discussing these sorts of ideas is one way to lessen the alienation that affects many of us trying to make sense of a world that so often makes no sense of us. We also play loads of awesome music (sometimes thematic!) with great enthusiasm for requests and an emphasis on supporting local artists. It's fun!

Wake up Zedheads! It's Thursday morning and Radio Reversal is hitting the airwaves at 9am, and today on the show we are bringing you recordings of some of the speeches at Tuesday evening's Vigil to Remember People Who Died While Experiencing Homelessness. This Vigil, organised by the Anti-Poverty Network QLD and Kindness First - Housing Justice, brought people together in front of City Hall in KGS to remember and grieve the three unhoused people have died in the past few weeks in brisbane and redcliffe. This gathering refused to let this loss of life go unacknowledged and unfelt, and positioned these deaths as outcomes of a deeply unjust housing system, and of policies that fail people, that fail our communities.
We're grateful to have been permitted to record this event and share some of the speeches with you, dear listeners, and we'll be playing them from 9am, alongside lots of new and local music on 4ZZZ. Tune in!
