She is joined by historians Justin Champion and Emma Watkins. Anne also visits the exhibition Indigenous Australia: Enduring Culture at the British Museum in the company of curator Gaye Sculthorpe, and is joined by anthropologist Howard Morphy to discuss the Aboriginal concept of dreamtime and the role its related art has played in shaping views of aboriginal history and contemporary frustrations.
