A shocking memoir of an Aboriginal Australian growing up and living with the legacy of racism and oppression in his country. Although I have read similar memoirs of African Americans or Native Americans in the states, it was enlightening to read the voice of someone dealing with very similar issues in another country. His writing is very honest and conversational. It would be a good read for those who enjoyed Ta-Nehisi Coates' Between the World and Me, or for those looking to challenge their own implicit biases.
An important look at the legacy of colonialism and discrimination in today's world.
