About this listen
What is it like to grow up Aboriginal in Australia? This anthology, compiled by award-winning author Anita Heiss, showcases many diverse voices, experiences and stories in order to answer that question. Accounts from well-known authors and high-profile identities sit alongside those from newly discovered writers of all ages. All of the contributors speak from the heart - sometimes calling for empathy, oftentimes challenging stereotypes, always demanding respect.

It's a collection of 51 stories, and they are read by a smaller number of voice actors. I really like the variety of voices and how they chose to bring each story to the listener.
The were definitely stand outs, like I Remember by Karranjal John Hartley, that I'll go back to again. But each story brings something special, and together they make a very powerful work.
These are stories that need to be told, to be heard, and to be felt. They shine the light on the shameful history of this country, and how past pain inflicted is felt across time.
But they also open a door into funny, warm, loving and quirky homes all across the nation, and delves into common threads of experience, growing up aboriginal in Australia.
Thank you
