Let’s be real. When it comes to the history and culture of Australia’s First Nations peoples, there is a lot of misinformation out there.
As part of NAIDOC Week celebrations, 10 Play has launched a three-part web series titled Stuff Everyone Should Know About Australia, available from today.
Hosted by actor, comedian and all-round superstar Elaine Crombie, this fun and fascinating, yet informative and insightful series, busts myths and celebrates truths about Australia’s history.
Sure, England has Stonehenge and Greece, the Parthenon, but here in Australia we have many wonderful ancient sites and places of culture to visit and behold.
Visit places where bread was being baked long before the Egyptians worked out how to do it; gain an understanding of what The Dreaming is and what songlines sing; and unlearn myths and expand notions of what it means to be a hunter-gatherer by visiting ancient fish traps and fields covered in native grains.
So, grab your notepad and let Stuff Everyone Should Know About Australia enlighten you, from the people who are the authorities on Australian history and culture.
Stuff Everyone Should Know About Australia was made in collaboration with a First Nation production company, Kalori Productions, with First Nations people in key creative roles.
