Australia's first Aboriginal Olympian
Manage episode 433914205 series 5385
Francis 'Frank' Roberts was a man who made history: a celebrated boxer, who became the first Aboriginal Olympian - in 1964, before the referendum.
How did he get the nod to travel to Tokyo, when he wasn't even acknowledged as an equal citizen in his own country? And what did he bring back from that experience?
Rhoda Roberts is telling Frank's story in a new play presented by NORPA, My Cousin Frank.
