4. Women of the House: Lidia Thorpe

JUN 30, 202140 MIN

Description

Having suffered from family violence, Lidia Thorpe was a survivor many times over before she entered politics and became Victoria's first and only First Nations senator.


But her battle with harassment was far from over.


Instead, she says she's one of many women in Canberra who have fallen victim to the sexism, entitlement, and inappropriate behaviour she feels is rife within Parliament House.
