Introducing Tiny Sparks and Turning Points: A Podcast Exploring Social Change in Australia

If you're interested in learning more about the events that have shaped Australia's social landscape, then you'll want to tune into the Tiny Sparks and Turning Points podcast. This monthly broadcast, produced by the Commons Social Change Library, is aired on Community Radio 3CR in Melbourne on the first Monday of every month at 8am[1][4].

Tiny Sparks and Turning Points delves into protests, strikes, and significant dates that have marked Australia's journey towards social change. The podcast offers a wealth of resources, not just limited to Australian history, but also encompassing the history of First Nations, social, and labor movements both in Australia and beyond[2].

The podcast is a treasure trove of insights, shedding light on movement moments in Australian history, environmental blockading in the 1980s, and even the intersection of activism and the arts[5][6]. It's a podcast that's closely tied to events that have transformed Australia, as the title itself suggests - From Little Things Big Things Grow[3].

In addition to its regular airing on 3CR, Tiny Sparks and Turning Points can also be heard on several other community radio stations across Australia. These include Radio Blue Mountains (Fridays 4pm to 6pm), 6RTR in Perth (Mondays 11am to 12pm), RiverFM in Lismore (Thursdays 10am to 12pm), BayFm in Byron Bay (Wednesdays 11am to 12pm), and 4ZZZ in Brisbane, airing Tuesdays 10am to 12pm at various points during each month[7][8][9][10][11].

For educators seeking to integrate these topics into their curriculum, there's a Social Justice Resources for Teachers: Topic Guide available[12]. And if you're a radio station looking to add Tiny Sparks and Turning Points as a regular segment, feel free to reach out to the Commons Social Change Library[13].

The podcast is also related to other thought-provoking podcasts such as The Social Change Agency Podcast, The Paradigm Shift Podcast, and The People's History of Australia, further solidifying its place as a valuable resource for those seeking to understand and engage with social change in Australia[14][15][16].
