Listen "Rethinking Migration Histories: Australian Perspectives, and Global Directions -- HCNSW at Sydney Writers' Festival 2025"
Episode Synopsis
Australian migration stories have tended to represent specific experiences of coming to Australia over our relatively short national history. But what does rethinking stories about mobility to, from, and within Australia offer historians and fellow story tellers? Leading historians Dr Sophie Loy-Wilson, Dr Yves Rees, and Dr Peter Hobbins will discuss overlooked narratives to challenge traditional views of what migration means for Australian history. By connecting past and present, the diversity of migration stories and their implications for understanding identities, place, and belonging will offer fresh perspectives for nuanced research and storying of our collective past.The History Council of New South Wales is supported by the NSW Government via a grant from Create NSW.***Music credit: 'The Path to Innovation' by Airae, licensed through Canva.Send us a textSupport the show
