Episode 7:2022 Naidoc Week Special


Listen Later

National NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia in the first week of July each year (Sunday to Sunday), to celebrate and recognise the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. NAIDOC Week is an opportunity for all Australians to learn about First Nations cultures and histories and participate in celebrations of the oldest, continuous living cultures on earth. 

In this special episode we have interviews with two amazing writers.   Firstly we speak with Richard Pritchard about his children's fiction novel Wylah the Koorie Warrior which we wrote in conjunction with Jordan Gould.

Then we hear from Dr Anita Heiss who speaks about her updated memoir Am I Black Enough for you - 10 years later,  and her other writing.

We hope you enjoy.
