Some poetic, some hilarious, many haunting or reckoning with pain and discrimination. Emotional, evocative, and expressive writing throughout.

4.0
People ask me sometimes if I experienced any racism when I was a kid. Questions like that always make me wonder where the other person is living. They seem to be speaking to me from some kind of magical Australia, where it's possible for an indigenous person to escape the effects of racism in a colonized land. But that's not the Australia I know. It would be surprising if it was, given that the entitlement of the colonizers to the soil was founded on the alleged superiority of western Europe ways of life, over those of indigenous peoples."
