These women are outstanding. At the Melb vigil Cassius's cousin said "he had so much love for the world", clearly he took after his mum.
Across the country, vigils are being held in memory of 15-year-old Noongar boy Cassius Turvey. Cassius’ mother, Mechelle and family friend Megan Krakouer join us to tell us how the outpouring of support has made them feel.

Whadjuk-Ballardong Noongar man Sam May has paid tribute to his younger cousin Cassius Turvey ahead of a vigil in Thornbury.
May hoped Cassius could "feel the embrace" of people honouring his mark on the world. #JusticeForCassius #CassiusTurvey

One productivity perk of working-from-home is that there's no need to spend time on hair and makeup every day... Listening to @JuliaGillard on the additional energy women expend to manage cultural expectations of appearance in workplace #mwfdigital #womeninleadership
