BOB BUNBA SPEAKS ABOUT HOMELESSNESS.wmv

Aboriginal man, Bob Bunba, makes an impassioned plea for the rights of homeless Aboriginal people to his vistors, Cassandra Goldie from the Darwin Community Legal Service, filmmaker Stella Simmering and activist, Bill Day, at the camp of his relative, Johnny Balaiya, in the bush near Darwin, the capital of the Northern Territory of Australia.
