Bunch of Books: Celebrating NAIDOC (Ep 37)
In recognition of NAIDOC Week 2021, resident bookworm Danielle Raffaele has served up a selection of publications from First Nations Australians in a brand new edition of Bunch of Books.
With insightful reads that ask how Indigenous ways of thinking can be applied to everyday life through learnings of the Dreamtime, to the matters of cultural dispossession and Feminists engaged in intersectionality, along with understanding the economic & multicultural history of Australia where Aboriginal people fought to prosper, with some deeply impactful accounts that focus on the ongoing impacts of colonisation; this wide cross section of intricately weaved stories mixed with grim histories are bound to keep you engaged.
