Our friends Marina & Xuan at Amplify Bookstore are back for another anti-racist Book Club takeover!

The episode spans works around invisible labour and recovering knowledge systems. In the first half we hear them delve deep into a contemporary fiction by Balli Kaur Jaswal. Mystery meets sharp social commentary with Now You See Us shedding light on the lives of 3 domestic workers in Singapore. The plot thickens as one of their friends gets accused of murder and the rest of them try to figure out if she really did it or not. 

We then hear Xuan and Marina in conversation with Adnyamathanha regenerative farmer, cultural educator and author Damien Coulthard. Hear him chat through what it is to decolonise through food, and the ways in which he cultivates relationships and practices that are preserving knowledge systems and natural resources. 

To find out more about the book and Damien’s work at Warndu, you can catch him in conversation at the Sydney Writers Festival on May 27 as part of two events. “Future Food’ and “The Dinner that Changed My Life’ MORE DETAILS HERE.
