This week in Australia is Reconciliation Week. Susan talks about National Sorry Day, the history and reasons behind Reconciliation Week and being a part of the stolen generation. Susan’s ancestry is Woolwonga and Gurindji from the Northern Territory. She was taken from her family and grew up in Sydney, Australia with her adoptive family. Today, Susan uses her expertise to work with mainstream organisations and communities in the provision of cultural competency and immersion sessions as well as social planning processes.
