Dr Samia Khatun: Australia's Blak and brown history

  • Summary

  • Discovering a mislabeled book in a Broken Hill mosque set our guest on a path to unearth cultural encounters between South Asian and Aboriginal communities in the 19th-century Australia, culminating in her groundbreaking debut monograph, 'Australianama'. Dhaka-born, Australia-bred feminist and cultural historian, Dr Samia Khatun focuses on the experiences of colonised peoples across the British Empire. Joining Ria Pandey for this episode, she challenges us to rethink the very foundations of how we understand our past, engage with our present, and envision our future. Note: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander listeners are advised that this program includes the name of a deceased person.
