Dr Yves Rees’ timely memoir, All About Yves, grants  readers access to a deeply personal journey of transition and  re-becoming, beyond the gender binary. As an historian, Yves has layered  their memoir with wider historical, social, linguistic, and cultural  contextual research, to piece together a wider and nuanced understanding  of the gender diverse and trans community.

Yves speaks with  Psychology Lecturer and researcher, Matthew Ruby, about what it’s like  to discover who you really are, beyond dominant gender narratives and  stereotypes, and how it feels to come out on the other side and live the  life you always wanted to.

Yves Rees talks to Jeff Sparrow about climate change, capitalism, and  the power of people just like you and me to change the tide of history.

Nardi Simpson’s Song of the Crocodile, and hot-off-the-press novels,  Salt & Skin by Eliza Henry-Jones and The Settlement by Jock Serong,  explore past atrocities and their lingering effects through time. They  discuss their creative process of writing stories connected to  historical violence, trauma and spirit of place with Jason Steger.
