A White Genocidal Assimilationist Bitch Speaks
AU$25.00 Read MoreAdd to cartKathleen Mary Fallon
[Sydney]: Polar Bear Press, 2023.“This second publication in the Queensland School Reader series continues Fallon’s reconciliation dialogues telling intimate stories of her forty years as the lesbian foster mother of a Torres Strait Islander with disabilities. This was during the lesophobic decades when the boy would have been immediately removed from her care if the Authorities had discovered her lesbianism. Her stories are angry, tragic, darkly humorous, sometimes just plain snarky and gossipy. Ranging geographically from Brisbane to Sydney to London and ranging temporally over those forty year they are personally, politically, socially and culturally informative and candid snap shots of those times. There is an urgency about these stories and they need to be told.” (author’s blurb)
