Ngaluk Waangkiny – Stories of resilience
Description
Meaning ‘Us Talking’ in Noongar, Ngaluk Waangkiny is a landmark, multi-media storytelling project designed to honour and preserve the legacy of Elders.
Ten respected Elders from Boorloo (Perth) have collaborated with Community Arts Network to share their life journeys as part of this truth-telling project. Their stories are poignant, powerful and at times heartbreaking and harrowing – but they have been laid bare so that future generations are aware of Australia’s often hidden Black history.
