He was the first Aboriginal person to become a Catholic priest in Australia.[7] He left the priesthood in the early 1980s[8] due to conflict over the balance and blend of Catholicism and Aboriginal spiritual belief.[4][9] Public serviceDodson lives in Broome where he is also involved in matters relating to the preservation and development of Indigenous rights and culture.
