Dr. Indigo Willing is a Vietnamese war orphan, sociologist, skateboarder, and co-author of the book; Skateboarding, Power and Change. This week, Dr. Indigo joins me for an in-person conversation about her intriguing life so far. We discuss her early years growing up in the northern suburbs of Sydney with her adoptive family, experiences of racism, why she was drawn to academia, the reality of “survivor guilt", her passion for community development, being awarded an Order of Australia Medal (OAM) and then resigning from the award, why skateboarding organically becomes an inclusive space, the future of skatepark design, skate-able cities, the fellowship she is embarking on with Sydney University, and much much more.
Darren Kaehne sits in as this week's guest co-host.
Dr. Indigo's journey is one of purpose, advocacy, kindness, empathy and equity.
Pure skateboarder, powerful change agent, blessed human...
Enjoy getting to know Dr. Indigo Willing.
