| Summary |
Progress of any kind is hard won. It requires determination and spirit, especially when trying to break through entrenched attitudes and systems. Everyday Brave profiles Indigenous Australians who have fought daily battles against discrimination, apathy and ignorance to make a real difference. They come from across the country - bush and city, mission and coastal town. Highly regarded within their own communities, they have remained largely unknown to the mainstream ... until now. Although their achievements spread across the fields of arts, commerce, education, health and politics, all these people are defined by their unwavering commitment to Australia's Indigenous peoples and the promotion of Indigenous rights, culture and identity. In six half-hour episodes, a team of Indigenous and non-Indigenous filmmakers introduces us to some remarkable individuals. Each has made a significant contribution to society at large and to their people in particular. Their stories tell of lives marked by long struggles and hardship, lightened by joy and humour. In this series, they recall their beginnings, ambitions, frustrations and the changes they have helped create. They share with us their unique perspectives and their ideas for the future.
