Have you ever felt conflicted because a family member's old school way of thinking doesn't align with what you value? Or felt a pull between being Asian and being Australian? Growing up Asian in the west comes with many beautiful things but it can also harbour feelings of confusion and disconnect as we explore our cultural identity. From gendered stereotypes to challenging patriarchal ways of thinking in Asian households, we chat to the incredibly intelligent author, illustrator, editor and lawyer, Rebecca Lim. Rebecca is the author of over 20 books, including Tiger Daughter, The Astrologer's Daughter (a Kirkus Best Book of 2015 and CBCA Notable Book for Older Readers), Afterlight and the bestselling Mercy. Her work has been shortlisted for the Prime Minister's Literary Award, Aurealis Award, INDIEFAB Book of the Year Award and Davitt Award, and has also been longlisted for the Gold Inky Award and the David Gemmell Legend Award. We are so lucky to have her join us on the poddy today as she brings her brilliant insights, witty sense of humour and passion for equality and diversity & inclusion. You can find more Rebecca Lim here and follow her on instagram here.
