Borrowing my son's #Indigenous #SydneySwans jersey for today's game at the #SCG to celebrate the start of #NAIDOCWeek (he's in Japan). Hopefully, I'm smiling more at the final siren than in this 6th attempt to take a half-decent selfie! β™₯️🀍 #SydneySwans #AFLSwansDockers #GoSwans

Selfie of me wearing my son's Indigenous round Sydney Swans jersey with a red and white striped scarf and half a smile!

We are excited to release the latest video from our First Nations Elders Oral History Project in time for NAIDOC Week. Following her first performance in Brisbane at the age of 17, Wilma Reading would be propelled to stardom from the 1960s to the 1980s, with the Cairns-born singer touring the world, performing with Duke Ellington, and becoming the first-ever Australian guest on the Johnny Carson Show.

Wilma was inducted into the National Indigenous Music Awards Hall of Fame in 2019 and continues to be very involved in the local music community, providing inspiration to First Nations musicians to follow their dreams. Watch the full 1 hour 15 minute interview with Wilma via our One Search catalogue -

I come from the salt water people
We've always lived by the sea…

I close my eyes and I'm standing
In a boat
On the sea again
