In a voice rich with humanity, filled with joy, pain, love and longing, Archie Roach traces the journey of his people, and gets to the heart of what it means to be human.
He is one of Australia’s most treasured performers.
Let us not lose momentum in this colonial battle while "certain" countries commit these atrocities over and over and over. FREE PALESTINE, CONGO, SUDAN, URGHURS, NATIVE AMERICA, ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIA, AND MANY MORE... ❤️🖤🤍💚

Sorry Archie, I found you too late, but I hope your spirit still lives and If it does it will know you are still loved. This is one of my favorite songs of yours, thank you for the music.
Love hearing Archie talking about Namatjira’s 2:55 paintings. We used to have them hanging in the main corridor at Timboon High School. I was fascinated with them, and they certainly called me to go and experience the colours of ‘the real Australia’. It made me think of the Western District of Victoria as a total bore - more a less all green and cypress trees. I eventually ended up accepting a teaching job in the Pilbara - so l got to experience the real Australia, personally :) in more ways than one. I was in Roebourne when John Pat died. Plus l am very privileged to still have contact with some of those l taught up there.
Congratulations to Archie and family for making the most of our virus times to get all these moving stories recorded on the history, and birthday, of the awesome album - Charcoal Lane. THANK YOU and RIP to these 2 important men of our music history.
My name is STEVE, I’m a white fella, just finished your book, Mr Archie Roach, so all I can say is brilliant thank you I’ve got a better understanding of the aboriginal people and what they went through. Aboriginal stories and history needs to be told.❤
Saw Archie play at Port Fairy after lockdown and he just blew me away with his performance, I just hung on every word he sang and spoke. Thank you so much for what you’ve given me through your music but more importantly what you’ve given to all our First Nations artists for years to come.
