8MMM

Based in Alice Springs, 8MMM runs on the smell of an oily rag and the enthusiasm of its motley crew. The 8MMM team air the day-to-day preoccupations of Alice Springs and its surrounds. But like most Indigenous organisations it’s run by whitefellas and when no-Indigenous people come to work in Aboriginal organisations they easily fall into one of three categories – missionaries, mercenaries or misfits – the 3Ms. For the 3Ms working at 8MMM saving Aboriginal people from themselves is hard work. For the Aboriginal people being saved all the time is even harder!
