Growing Up Aboriginal in Australia by Anita Heiss

4.0

Anthology of over 50 essays by various contributors about their experiences growing up Aboriginal in Australia. There are a wide range of ages (people born around the time of WWII to those born in the 80s and 90s.) telling of their and their families’ lives. There are instances of bullying, low key and blatant racism. There are the truly sad stories about the Stolen Generation...children of Aboriginal descent taken from their families by the government from the early 1900s through the late 1960s.
