    Episode 3: The Risdon Cove Massacre
    Jan 11 2023

    Camp Raven covers its first non-American story as well as the first historical story to be told.

    On May 3rd, 1804, a large group of Aboriginal people would appear on the neighboring hillside of a setllement in Risdon Cove. Three hours would pass, people killed, a child abducted, and conflicting reports would arise in the aftermath of a senseless violent event.

    Were the Aboriginals killed by white soldiers for sport or was it self-defense?
