Michael Parker (played by Kelton Pell) appears in September.
Father of Paddy and an Aboriginal labourer residing in a shack on the Anderson farm. After requesting wages following the 1967 referendum, he is denied by Rick and chooses to continue unpaid labor to support his family and new baby rather than face eviction.
