Growing Up African in Australia by Ahmed Yussuf, Maxine Beneba Clarke, Magan Magan
emotional
informative
reflective
slow-paced
4.5
A personal and expansive collection about the experiences of African diaspora people in Australia. Distinct stories but common threads - family, trying to maintain connection to culture, racism (both overt and microaggressions), identity (from an individual, community and global context). Also their relationship to Australia 'growing up' vs now as an adult.
Moderate: Colonisation, Racial slurs, and Racism
Minor: War
