Welcome to the season finale of season one! In our final instalment, we have Michael Mohammad Ahmad. Mohammed is an award winning Arab-Australian author who has written The Tribe and The Lebs. He is also the founder of Sweatshop, a literacy based organisation aimed at empowering Indigenous and culturally and linguistically diverse communities.
