Description
This is writing about Meanjin, by Meanjin, as selected by Jeanine Leane and Dan Bourchier.
First Nations Writing: Meanjin 1977 to today captures the powerful Aboriginal and Torres Strait writers who have shaped the national conversation across peoples, place and time, showcasing the richness of First Nations writing and ideas that reflect on the past even as it imagines a future built on respect, fairness and truth.
It includes work by poets, public intellectuals, writers, philosophers, critics, and social commentators that altogether show what it is to be an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander person in Australia then, and now.
