In Australia, it's summer time, and we're approaching Christmas. And so we need to be on high alert when it comes to two things: bush fire danger and B-S messaging that tries to convince us our bodies need changing! In this episode we're talking about the latter. I share about how this Great Lie has managed to thrive, and how we can choose to cultivate an alternative narrative for ourselves. In this episode I read a short excerpt by Don Bemrose from ‘Growing Up Aboriginal in Australia', edited by Anita Heiss. I really recommend this book. 

What happened when I tried to read four books in two weeks while travelling across the world during a pandemic? Well, you lucky listeners get to find out. In this episode I read an Aussie classic, a Miles Franklin Award winner, an essay collection, and a YA contemporary. I hope you enjoy! Our next book club pick is a mystery thriller: The Trap by Melanie Raabe. I'll be discussing this on the 25th of October, and I hope you read a long with us!

Growing Up Aboriginal in Australia is a compilation of 52 essays from First Nations authors, some of whom have never been published before. Rounak Amini/AAPAnita Heiss is one of the most prolific writers documenting Aboriginal experiences in Australia today through non-fiction, historical fiction, poetry and children’s literature. Her memoir, Am I Black Enough for You?, was a finalist in the 2012 Human Rights Awards. Growing Up Aboriginal in Australia. Black Inc. Books For her latest book, Growing Up Aboriginal in Australia, Heiss traded the role of writer for editor. The anthology includes 52 essays from First Nations writers spanning the breadth of society, from rural to urban, young to old, coastal regions to the country’s interior, well known authors to emerging writers. There’s even an essay by an opera singer, Don Bemrose, about his experience as what she calls a “double minority” – he’s both Aboriginal and gay. The result is a collection of stories that speaks to the strength of Aboriginal identity in Australia today, as well as the diversity of voices in the long marginalised Aboriginal literary community. For this episode of Speaking With, Professor Jacinta Elston, pro vice-chancellor (Indigenous) at Monash University, spoke with Heiss about the process of making the selections for the anthology, the main themes explored in the essays and how she envisions the book being used as a reference tool in classrooms across the country. Edited by Maggy Liu. Anita Heiss is speaking at the Brisbane Writers Festival on Sunday, 9 September.
