Quotes by Gary Lonesborough (?)

“If we don’t let ourselves be who we are, love who we are, where we come from, it’ll strangle ya until you can’t fight it no longer.”

“Go to your elders. You should ask them about your country and your totem. Because that is your identity. A blackfella with no identity is a lost blackfella. He don't know where he belongs.”
― Gary Lonesborough, The Boy from the Mish
