Episode description

Decolonising institutions & protecting your peace.

In this episode, Nana chats with Keeaira, Patrick and Karri about their Aboriginality. They discuss being Aboriginal in institutions, whether decolonising spaces is their work, whether Acknowledgements to Country have become reduced to a check box, the absence of Indigenous/Bla(c)k history in schools, feeling like the token Aboriginal person dangled in front of white people, being a light-skinned Aboriginal person, how stories about Aboriginal people are told for settler audiences, solidarity with non-Indigenous settlers, healing within community, Black Lives Matter in Australia, Indigenous people leading the way, protecting your peace + more!

Intro and outro music by @mattymadeit on Instagram.

The Subtlety of It is recorded and produced on the stolen land of the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation. I would like to pay my respect to the Ancestors who protect this sacred land and live and speak through community members. I would like to also pay my respect to Elders and community members who are the ongoing custodians of this land and pass on knowledge of Country and the beauty of their cultures through generations. Sovereignty was never ceded. This land always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.

The Subtlety of It is about seemingly small aspects of our identity which affect us in not so subtle ways. Let's unpack these things - consciously, openly and unapologetically. Hosted & created by Nana. Produced by Awura Abena and Nana.
