Jackie Huggins to discuss Sister Girl for BlackWords Book Club

Join us for the first BlackWords Book Club meeting of 2022 where we'll be joined by Dr Jackie Huggins and discuss the latest edition of her seminal work, Sister Girl: Reflections on Tiddaism, Identity and Reconciliation.

Dr Jackie Huggins AM FAHA, a member of the Bidjara and Birri Gubba Juru peoples, is currently leading the work for Treaty/Treaties in Queensland. In popular demand as a speaker on Aboriginal issues, she is a well-known historian and author, with articles published widely in Australia and internationally.

Sister Girl reflects on many important and timely topics, including identity, activism, leadership and reconciliation. We hope you can join us for this very special book club and encourage you to bring questions or your own reflections on a favoured passage from the book.
