Jirra Lulla Harvey: Aboriginal Entrepreneurs and Disrupting Australian (mono)Culture - SDMEL03
I talk with Jirra Lulla Harvey about the emerging wave of Aboriginal entrepreneurs, and how this is subtly and profoundly bringing about a change in the race conversation within Australia, as well as improving the wellbeing of all Australians.
Jirra owns and runs Kalinya Communications, a marketing and communications agency focused on sharing diverse images and stories of Aboriginal identity in an effort to counterbalance the often negative media representation of Indigenous affairs. After a long history in the arts, including a stint at the National Gallery of Australia, Jirra started working with the next generation of Aboriginal entrepreneurs.
