This was so damned good 🔥👌🏼♥️. Claire G. Coleman is awesome. I‘ve read her two novels and now this book of essays examining the settler colonisation of Australia. Do yourself a favour and get hold of anything she writes. #truthtelling #knowyourtruth

Rissreads Look at the view! 💚 3y
MrsMalaprop Yes, it‘s a nice little spot. Same view, different book today 🙏😎. 3y
ClairesReads This view is stunning? Is this home for you? 3y
MrsMalaprop @ClairesReads no, this was taken on a recent holiday in Mandurah, 45 minutes south of where I live in Perth, Western Australia 😊. 3y

Quote from Chapter 13 ‘Bloody Australia Day‘.

For any Australians out there still struggling to understand why our National day of celebration on 26 January needs to change.

This book of essays about the colonisation of Australia is👌🏼🔥☄️.

Eva_B I cringe every time I hear someone saying that Australia is ‘the lucky country‘ and knowing what Donald Horne was really saying about Australia. 3y
MrsMalaprop @Eva2 Yes, makes me think of politician interpretation (Reagan & Trump) of Springsteen‘s Born in the USA. 🙄 3y
Eva_B @MrsMalaprop Yes! That is a good comparison! 3y

Making a start on Claire G Coleman‘s latest offering. The title says it all and this quote in the Introduction sets the scene for “a personal exploration of the impact of colonisation” in Australia. I‘m strapping myself in. #currentlyreading #truthtelling
