‘I was raised to think and act white, which has been a hard thing to come up against and change in my life. I am a black man, I’m an Indigenous Australian, and I am an Aboriginal, I am a native. I think with my head and my heart simultaneously, as we all do. We live and dream the land. To be raised to think white and act white, how did they do that? I used to ask my mother’s mother if I was Aboriginal, if I was dark, if I was black. She used to say “You’re not Aboriginal, you have just got a sun tan.” My mother used to give me the same answer. But I didn’t stop searching, I spoke to people who might have know my dad and I found out who I was.’
