Join us on this special re-cast of our Real Chats episode from earlier this year with young writer Soaliha Iqbal! She joins us on this episode to chat all things race, racism and growing up in Australia as a person of colour.

We chat about:

• Growing up in Sydney's west, and experiencing all types of stereotyping
• The viral incident where she was told to remove her hijab at a Sydney bar
• How we can start to make actual progress on race in Australia, as the Black Lives Matter movement rolls on
