Identity

Aboriginal Feminism and Gender

Listen to Claire Coleman

‘Art can not only teach the people who are not part of those identities, that those identities are not the enemy, but it can teach people from within the LGBTQI community that our community, and our identity, is something to be proud of and not something to be ashamed of.’
Claire Coleman
