The connections between the Caribbean and Australia go back to white settlement, with deep links to the slave trade and British colonialism. What does it mean to be a writer of Caribbean descent in modern Australia? And how can the act of writing and storytelling enable a new sense of belonging and home?

This event was recorded at the Callaloo and Wattleseed Symposium at the University of Western Sydney on 3 May 2924.
