My Native and I, by Daisy Bates

Daisy Bates accounts and connection with Aboriginal people across Australia is amazing.... however for me personally as a Noongah woman from Perth Western Australia whose Country Daisy speaks of the most is BIBBULMUN COUNTRY is the Country of my Ancestors in the South West region of Western Australia... being 2024 Noongah culture has almost been lost so Daisy's accounts of my peoples Country is a blessing to help my people learn about our Old Ways that isn't commonly known amongst us or we just don't know about bcoz it's been lost since colonization...♥️
