Do you work in ? Then you are probably doing unpaid overtime, facing structural barriers to success and earning less than you’re worth!

🌿 So pleased to be on the shortlist and have my work included in the FUTURES story anthology with @glimmer_press - a small press based on Kaurna land in my old hometown Adelaide. Great to be among some familiar names on the list!

This memoir! 'Unknown'. An important, well written, inspiring, challenging, change-inducing gift to Australia and the world from Akuch Kuol Anyieth. From war-torn South Sudan, to Kenya’s Kakuma Refugee Camp, to Australia this 📕 will break your heart but also make it beat. It throws out a challenge to all Australians (and people of other nations) to think about how we can better support and welcome people who have experienced inter-generational trauma. It also throws out another challenge: how to finish it in one sitting because you won’t want to put it down. Real people, real places and experiences, a really worthwhile read. Published by Text Publishing.

Travelling around recently I came across this street sign so I popped back with a copy of its namesake (although not the suburb the book or album is named after).
It's been two years since this little collection came forth and I am still super proud of it.
Now I'm waiting on @solkyri latest release.
