Humanising Decolonisation

The concept of decolonising can be a scary process. During this episode, Tammy and Nathan speak to their own experiences of decolonisation. Two very different paths and perspectives. Together, they tackle the following questions and dive deep in to the topic. That is... What feels do you get when you hear the word decolonise? What does decolonisation mean to you? Why is decolonising important and necessary? What have been your biggest learnings on your decolonisation journey (so far)? What has or continues to be the biggest challenge with decolonising? What lessons or advice would you give to others beginning this process? Tammy as a Dharug woman, speaks to her journey of identification, her ongoing commitment to strengthening connections to and between Country, Community and Self as well as the marathon (not the sprint) of doing the work. While Nathan - a whitefella on a journey - talks of his growth, enjoyment of making mistakes to learn, the power of acceptance and learning from Indigenous knowledges.
