Dr Chelsea Bond is a Munanjahli and South Sea Islander academic who currently lectures at the Queensland University of Technology. Her background is in health policy, but over the years she has become actively involved in critical race studies and the construction of Aboriginal identity beyond the health sector.
Chelsea and Amy McQuire spoke today about the racism that permeates Australian society, how we need Australia to have a conversation about it, and we deconstruct Buzzfeed Australia’s recent video ‘I’m Aboriginal but I’m not’ (click here to see the video.) We also discuss the Adam Goodes fallout, and why it upset ‘white fragility’.
Chelsea is also curating this year’s Clancestry Conversations held at QPAC.
