Yarn Quest is back, we’ve missed you all so much! This episode Yarnies Sibyl, Pania, Isobel and Adelaide tell us real and made up stories about friendship. At the end of every episode in this season of Yarn Quest you’ll hear from First Nations experts who will tell you all about what they do, and how you could do it too when you grow up! For the friendship episode, you’ll hear from Amy Leah Farrell, a youth mental health worker, and descendant of the Yuwi people. And as a special treat, your host Aunty Brooke is going to introduce you to her new friend and co-host Uncle Mot! So let’s jump back in, it’s time for an adventure.
A huge thank you to Kira, Sibyl, Pania, Isobel and Adelaide for their help with this episode.

At Awesome Black we don’t like to talk about the deficit that First Nations people have gone through, we don’t like to talk about the history of government failures and the effects they have had on our communities. We recognise that they have happened, but we want to talk about what we can do right now to get things moving forward for us, by us.
At Awesome Black we are attempting to create a system where wealth stays in our communities and we can build up Blakenomics, supporting each other’s businesses and community. At every point when we buy something we think… can we buy this from a First Nations person, if the answer is yes we do it, if the answer is no… we ask more questions. Why not? And how do we make sure that we can in the future?
Awesome Black acknowledges the traditional owners across the lands on which we live and work.
Awesome Black is about First Nations, first in everything we do. A community of skilled creators are ready to collaborate. If you have an idea for a project get in touch.
