Good morning. Our lead story today is a new investigation into coded diary entries from a Western Australian pastoralist. They describe a number of killings of Yamatji people in the 1850s, confirming knowledge passed down through Yamatji Naaguja families for generations. Descendants on both sides say it’s time to break the cycle of shame and silence.

We report from the massive crowd of pro-Palestine protesters who made their feelings about the Gaza crisis clear by marching across the Sydney Harbour Bridge yesterday.
